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.

This announcement was made by the agency’s spokesman, Dele Oyewale, in a circular released on the EFCC’s X handle on Friday.

According to the EFCC, Achimugu, 51, is an indigene of Ofu Local Government Area of Kogi State, and her last known address is 6C, Rudolf Close, Maitama, Abuja.

The commission has urged anyone with useful information about her whereabouts to contact them.

“The public is hereby notified that Aisha Sulaiman Achimugu, whose photograph appears above is wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in an alleged case of criminal conspiracy and money laundering,” the circular reads.

“Anybody with useful information as to her whereabouts should please contact the commission at its Ibadan, Uyo, Sokoto, Maiduguri, Benin, Makurdi, Kaduna, Ilorin, Enugu, Kano, Lagos, Gombe, Port Harcourt or Abuja offices or through 08093322644, its email address: [email protected] or the nearest police station or other security agencies”

Achimugu’s case has sparked interest due to her association with Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, who attended her 50th birthday celebration in Grenada.

The EFCC has been investigating Achimugu for her alleged involvement in a complex money laundering scheme and a high-profile investment scam.
