The commission for economic and financial crimes, EFCC, refuted the media relationships that connect its investigations on Mrs. Aisha Achimugu with political and underground current tensions.
The anti-Innesto agency, in the declaration issued on Friday 28 March by the spokesperson, Delewale, said that Achimugu’s investigations had nothing to do with the former vice-president Atiku Abubakar and the governor of the State of Lagos, Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
Efcc said: “We want to unequivocally affirm that Achimugu’s investigations have no correlation of any kind with the two political actors. It is investigated for alleged criminal conspiracy and money laundering and has since been declared sought by the Commission.
“The EFCC has started investigations on Achimugu in 2022 and although he approached the Court to obtain an injunction that prevents the Commission from arresting, investigating, inviting or holding it for any alleged criminal act, the injunction was contested and freed on Wednesday 19 February 2025 by a high federal court sitting in Abuja.
“The Court has established that” … no court has the power to stop the investigative powers of the police or the FCC or any agency established pursuant to our laws to investigate the crimes when there is reasonable suspicion of commission of a crime or wide proof of a crime commission by a suspicion “.
“The Court has further supported the provisional order of forfeiture of Achimugu’s activities suspected of being income of the crime, rejecting its cause against it as a lack of merit.
“The foregoing clearly establishes that the case of the Fcc against her does not have an immediate or remote connection with any politician or any veiled reference or open to any commitment or political transaction.
“The EFCC is non -partisan and non -sectarian. We infinate the public to continue to maintain faith with the professionalism of the Commission without attributing any consideration foreign to his works.”
