The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared businesswoman and socialite Aisha Sulaiman Achimugu wanted on charges of alleged criminal conspiracy and money laundering.

According to the EFCC, Ms. Achimugu, 51, is from Ofu Local Government Area in Kogi State, with her last known address at 6C, Rudolf Close, Maitama, Abuja. The agency urges anyone with information about her whereabouts to contact any of its offices across Nigeria or reach out via phone at 08093322644 or email at [email protected].

Reports indicate that Ms. Achimugu was summoned to appear at the EFCC's Port Harcourt office on March 5, 2025, concerning an investigation into alleged money laundering and a high-profile investment scam. However, she reportedly failed to honor the invitation and is believed to have left Nigeria between March 6 and 7.

This development follows earlier reports suggesting that Ms. Achimugu allegedly funneled funds to opposition leaders during the 2023 elections, leading to political tensions. The EFCC's declaration comes amid these allegations, although details remain under investigation.

The EFCC has obtained a court warrant for Ms. Achimugu's arrest and is appealing to the public for assistance in locating her. Individuals with relevant information are encouraged to contact the EFCC through the provided channels.
