Socialite and the MD/CEO of Felak Concept Group, Aisha Achimugu, has reportedly fled the country after being declared wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Chronicle NG reports that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) declared the businesswoman wanted over financial crimes.
Dele Oyewale, the spokesman of the EFCC, made this known in a circular released via the EFCC’s X handle on Friday.
According to the EFCC, Achimugu is wanted by the commission in an alleged case of criminal conspiracy and money laundering.
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 commission had, in a letter, summoned the socialite to appear at its Port Harcourt office on March 5 over alleged money laundering and a high-profile investment scam.
The letter, dated March 4 and signed by the EFCC’s acting zonal director in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Adebayo Adeniyi, was delivered to Achimugu’s residence 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.
However, rather than reporting to the EFCC office as ordered by the commission, Achimugu was claimed to have left Nigeria on Thursday, March 6.
After she allegedly fled the country, the commission secured an arrest order and declared her wanted.
