The circular reads, “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.
“Achimugu, 51, is an indigene of Ofu Local Government Area of Kogi State and her last known address is 6C, Rudolf Close, Maitama, Abuja.
“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: info@efcc.gov.ng or the nearest police station or other security agencies.”
The EFCC had previously summoned Achimugu to appear at its Port Harcourt office on March 5th, in connection with allegations of money laundering and a high-profile investment scam.
This summons was issued in a letter dated March 4th, signed by Adebayo Adeniyi, the EFCC’s acting zonal director in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, and was sent to Achimugu’s residential address in Abuja.
“This commission is currently investigating a case in which the need to obtain certain clarification from you becomes imperative.
“In view of the above, you are kindly requested to attend an interview with the undersigned through the Head of Investigation on Wednesday, 5th March 2025, by 10:00 hours prompt,” the letter reads.
Instead of reporting to the EFCC office as requested, Achimugu reportedly left Nigeria on Thursday, March 6th.
Following her departure, the EFCC obtained an arrest warrant and declared her wanted.
