The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has officially declared businesswoman and socialite Aisha Sulaiman Achimugu wanted over allegations of criminal conspiracy and money laundering. This development was announced by the EFCC’s spokesman, Dele Oyewale, through a public notice shared on the agency’s X handle on Friday.
According to the EFCC, Achimugu, 51, hails from Ofu Local Government Area in Kogi State. Her last known address is 6C, Rudolf Close, Maitama, Abuja. The agency has urged anyone with relevant information about her whereabouts to contact its offices in various states, including Abuja, or reach out via its official hotline and email.
Prior to being declared wanted, Achimugu had been summoned by the EFCC to appear at its Port Harcourt office on March 5, 2025, to clarify issues related to an ongoing investigation involving alleged money laundering and a high-profile investment scam. The letter, dated March 4, was signed by Adebayo Adeniyi, the EFCC’s acting zonal director in Port Harcourt, and was delivered to her residence in Abuja.
Despite the summons, Achimugu reportedly left Nigeria on March 6, a day after she was expected to report to the commission. Following her alleged departure, the EFCC obtained an arrest warrant and subsequently declared her wanted. The agency continues its efforts to track her down, calling on the public and security agencies for assistance in locating her.
