“What he is trying to do is the real restructuring of the country. Many Nigerians believe that restructuring is dividing the country along regional lines,” said Mr Onyema.

The chairman of Air Peace, Allen Onyema, has praised President Bola Tinubu for his efforts in implementing policies aimed at stabilising business operations across Nigeria.

Mr Onyema hailed Mr Tinubu in a statement on Friday.

According to the statement, Mr Onyema had met with Mr Tinubu at the State House in Abuja on Thursday.

Mr Onyema said that the president had made great strides with the ease of doing business in the aviation industry.

He said that with the new reforms introduced by aviation minister Festus Keyamo, the Tinubu administration would stabilise the aviation industry.

Mr Onyema acknowledged that the economy was faced with challenges; however, he encouraged Nigerians to support the government and indigenous investments.

“The president is a businessman, and he is trying to stabilise businesses with his policies, but people do not realise this. Some of us in business realise what the president is trying to do.

“What he is trying to do is the real restructuring of the country. Many Nigerians believe that restructuring is dividing the country along regional lines.

“However, what Tinubu is doing is the real restructuring by changing the way we do things in the country for a better result in the long run,” he said.
