EFCC Declares Aisha Achimugu Wanted for Money Laundering

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has announced that businesswoman and socialite Aisha Achimugu is wanted over allegations of money laundering and conspiracy.

This was made public on Friday through a statement shared by the commission’s spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, on EFCC’s official X (formerly Twitter) account.

According to the EFCC, Achimugu is being sought in connection with an ongoing investigation into criminal conspiracy and financial crimes.

Her last known residence is located in Maitama, Abuja, and she hails from Ofu Local Government Area in Kogi State.

The agency has requested that anyone with useful information about her whereabouts reach out to EFCC offices across several cities, including Abuja, Lagos, and Port Harcourt, or contact law enforcement authorities.

A phone number and email address were also provided for tips.

Prior to being declared wanted, Achimugu was summoned to the EFCC’s Port Harcourt office for questioning on March 5.

This followed accusations linking her to a suspected large-scale investment scam.

Despite the formal invitation, Achimugu allegedly left Nigeria the day before the scheduled interview, on March 6.

In response, the commission obtained an arrest warrant and made her status as a wanted individual public.
