Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC stormed the Asokoro, Abuja, home of fugitive businesswoman and socialite Aisha Achimugu on Friday, hours after the agency declared her wanted for criminal conspiracy and money laundering.
The EFCC operatives arrived at the socialite’s home at about 9 p.m. for a search.
At home were Aisha’s aged mother who recently celebrated her 70th birthday. Also present were her children, and domestic aides while EFCC operatives conducted their search.
On Friday, IvoryNG had published an official gazette asking anyone with useful information about Achimugu’s whereabouts to contact the Commission in its Ibadan, Uyo, Sokoto, Maiduguri, Benin, Makurdi, Kaduna, Ilorin, Enugu, Kano, Lagos, Gombe, Port Harcourt or Abuja offices or through 08093322644; its e-mail address: info@efcc.gov.ng or the nearest Police Station and other security agencies.
IvoryNG had earlier reported that the anti graft agency obtained a court warrant preparatory to declaring her wanted after she failed to honour their invitation for a meeting with interrogators scheduled for March 5 and subsequently fleeing Nigeria.
