The airline said the recognition celebrates Air Peace’s “consistent operational excellence, customer-focused innovation, and impressive route expansion across domestic, regional, and international networks.” A highlight of its recent milestones, the airline said, is the launch of its Abuja–London Heathrow route, an accomplishment it said cements its position as the first Nigerian carrier to operate direct flights between the nation’s capital and the United Kingdom’s busiest airport.
“The Trailblazer Award in Transport and Logistics bestowed upon Dr. Onyema acknowledges his visionary leadership, strategic foresight, and relentless commitment to advancing Nigeria’s aviation, transport, and logistics landscape. His pioneering efforts have expanded the country’s global aviation footprint while inspiring renewed confidence in the nation’s potential. These recognitions show our growing list of accolades and reaffirm our status as a trailblazer in African aviation driven by innovation, safety, and excellence,” the airline said.
