In other news, a document has confirmed that businesswoman Aisha Achimugu is indeed under investigation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), countering media claims from her camp that the anti-graft agency is not probing her.
Earlier reports by this newspaper revealed that Ms. Achimugu fled Nigeria after failing to honor an EFCC invitation. Following this, her aides ramped up efforts in the media to deny the investigation, with several digital and social media reports quoting unnamed sources to falsely assert that she was not under probe by the EFCC.
EFCC insiders had informed Premium Times that Ms. Achimugu, a friend to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State, was summoned for questioning on March 5, 2025, in connection with allegations of money laundering and involvement in a high-profile investment scam.
A letter of investigation, dated March 4 and signed by Adebayo Adeniyi, the EFCC’s acting zonal director in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, was sent to Ms. Achimugu’s residential address in Abuja.
