EFCC Declares Businesswoman Aisha Sulaiman Achimugu Wanted for Alleged Criminal Conspiracy and Money Laundering
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has issued a public notice declaring businesswoman and popular socialite, Aisha Sulaiman Achimugu, wanted for alleged involvement in criminal conspiracy and money laundering.
The notice, which includes a photograph of the 51-year-old, was shared on the EFCC's official X (formerly Twitter) handle on Friday, signed by the agency's spokesperson, Dele Oyewale.According to the EFCC’s announcement, Achimugu is being sought in connection with a significant criminal case that involves conspiracy and money laundering. The notice details that she is an indigene of Ofu Local Government Area in Kogi State and provides her last known address as 6C, Rudolf Close, Maitama, Abuja.
The businesswoman, who is the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Felak Concept Group, a company with diverse interests in engineering, oil and gas, and information technology, is now a subject of investigation by the EFCC. She is accused of being involved in a complex scheme of financial misconduct that allegedly violated Nigerian financial laws.
“The public is hereby notified that Aisha Sulaiman Achimugu, whose photograph appears above, is wanted by the EFCC in connection with an alleged case of criminal conspiracy and money laundering,” the notice reads, urging anyone with information about her whereabouts to contact the EFCC immediately.
Achimugu, who has been a well-known figure in both business and social circles, has made headlines in the past due to her prominent status. However, her recent troubles with the law have placed her under intense scrutiny as the EFCC steps up its investigation.
The EFCC is calling on members of the public to come forward with any information that could aid in locating Achimugu. The commission has made it clear that it intends to hold individuals accountable for any illegal activities relating to financial crimes.
As the search for Achimugu continues, this latest development adds to the growing number of high-profile cases being pursued by the EFCC in its fight against corruption and financial crimes in Nigeria. The commission's efforts are part of ongoing campaigns to ensure greater financial transparency and accountability in the country’s business and political landscapes.
