Aisha Achimugu, a businesswoman and socialite, has been listed as wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
Dele Oyewale, the agency’s spokesperson, said this in a circular published on Friday through the EFCC’s X Twitter.
The EFCC claims that Achimugu is wanted by the organization in connection with a suspected money laundering and criminal conspiracy case.
According to the circular, “The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is seeking Aisha Sulaiman Achimugu, whose photo is shown above, in connection with a suspected criminal conspiracy and money laundering case.”
The last residence of 51-year-old Achimugu, who is native to Kogi State’s Ofu Local Government Area, is 6C, Rudolf Close, Maitama, Abuja.
The commission’s offices in Ibadan, Uyo, Sokoto, Maiduguri, Benin, Makurdi, Kaduna, Ilorin, Enugu, Kano, Lagos, Gombe, Port Harcourt, or Abuja, as well as its email address, info@efcc.gov.ng, the closest police station, or other security agencies, are the best places for anyone with helpful information about her whereabouts to get in touch.
In a letter, the agency reportedly asked the socialite to come to its Port Harcourt office on March 5 in connection with a high-profile investment scheme and suspected money laundering.
The letter was delivered to Achimugu’s home in Abuja on March 4 and signed by Adebayo Adeniyi, the acting zonal director of the EFCC in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
“This commission is looking into a matter right now where it becomes essential to get specific clarity from you.
The letter states, “Given the foregoing, you are respectfully asked to appear for an interview with the undersigned via the Head of Investigation on Wednesday, March 5, 2025, by 10:00 hours prompt.”
However, it was reported that on Thursday, March 6, Achimugu left Nigeria instead of going to the EFCC headquarters as instructed by the agency.
The agency secured an arrest order and proclaimed her sought after she allegedly left the country.
