The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared businesswoman and socialite Aisha Achimugu wanted in connection with an alleged case of criminal conspiracy and money laundering. The agency announced this in a circular released via its X (formerly Twitter) account on Friday.
According to the EFCC, Achimugu, 51, is an indigene of Ofu Local Government Area in Kogi State, with her last known address being 6C, Rudolf Close, Maitama, Abuja. The public has been urged to provide any information regarding her whereabouts to the EFCC or local law enforcement agencies.
The circular stated: “Achimugu is wanted by the EFCC in an alleged case of criminal conspiracy and money laundering.” The agency has requested that anyone with useful information contact its offices across various locations or use the provided phone number and email address.
The EFCC had previously summoned Achimugu to appear for questioning at its Port Harcourt office on March 5 regarding allegations of money laundering and involvement in a high-profile investment scam. However, instead of complying, Achimugu reportedly left Nigeria on March 6. Following her departure, the EFCC obtained an arrest warrant and has since declared her wanted. The agency continues to seek the public’s assistance in locating her.
