The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared Aisha Achimugu, a well-known businesswoman and philanthropist in Abuja, wanted for her alleged involvement in conspiracy and money laundering.
In an announcement on Friday, March 28, the EFCC posted Achimugu’s details on its social media platforms, urging the public to assist in locating her.
According to the commission, Achimugu, 51, hails from Ofu Local Government Area of Kogi State. Her last known address is 6c Rudolf Close, Maitama, Abuja.
The EFCC stated, “Anybody with useful information as to her whereabouts should please contact the commission in its Ibadan, Uyo, Sokoto, Maiduguri, Benin, Makurdi, Kaduna, Ilorin, Enugu, Kano, Lagos, Gombe, Port Harcourt, or Abuja offices.”
Additionally, the agency encouraged individuals with relevant information to reach out via email, call its dedicated mobile number, or report to the nearest police station.
Achimugu gained public attention last year when she hosted an elaborate 50th birthday celebration in Grenada, which lasted nearly a week and attracted significant attention.
She is also reportedly close to Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu. Despite the allegations, Achimugu is set to receive two awards—one from Vanguard Newspapers on April 11 and another at an event in Morocco on April 12.
