The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has issued a wanted notice for businesswoman Aisha Sulaiman Achimugu over allegations of money laundering and investment fraud.
The anti-graft agency on Friday named Ms. Achimugu wanted, identifying her as an associate of Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
The EFCC, in a statement by it’s Head of Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale, urged anyone with useful information about her whereabouts to contact the Commission.
The statement read: “The public is hereby notified that Aisha Sulaiman Achimugu, whose photograph appears above is wanted by the EFCC in an alleged case of criminal conspiracy and money laundering.”
Ms. Achimugu’s name previously surfaced in reports involving Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
Recall that on January 24, the governor had left his official duties in Lagos to attend Ms. Achimugu’s 50th birthday celebration in Grenada, a Caribbean island.
Sanwo-Olu reportedly took a private jet and stayed at one of the most opulent resorts in the world, according to Premium Times. Some government officials did not know where he was during his absence; some said he was abroad, while others suggested he was on an important trip to London.
