The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared Nigerian businesswoman and socialite Aisha Achimugu wanted over allegations of criminal conspiracy and money laundering.
According to EFCC spokesperson Dele Oyewale, Achimugu failed to honor an invitation to appear at the commission's Port Harcourt office on March 5, 2025, in connection with an ongoing investigation into a high-profile investment scam.

Subsequently, she reportedly left Nigeria between March 6 and 7, prompting the EFCC to obtain an arrest warrant. Achimugu's media aide, David Abakpa, has denied reports of her arrest, labeling them as "fake news" and attributing them to malicious actors aiming to tarnish her reputation.
