The Commission for economic and financial crimes, EFCC, intensified his investigations on an important financial scandal that involves the business woman, Aisha Achimugu, who is in general, worsening her problems after having made enormous discoveries.
According to reports, the Commission discovered luxury items and large sums of money in its residence in Abuja, linked to $ 250 million missing.
By acting on a mandate issued by the Court, the EFCC agents broke into the property of Achimugu located at no. 61 Hassan Usman Katsina Street, where they presumably discovered ₦ 30 million in cash, $ 50,000 in foreign currency and several boxes full of gold, diamonds and silver jewels worth over 1 billion.
The discovery is part of a wider survey on the accusations of money laundering and the bad management of the funds of the political campaign.
Sources close to the investigation revealed that the 250 million dollars were presumably entrusted to Aisha Achimugu by a governor to support preparations for the election campaigns.
The insiders claim that the funds were intended for custody but were instead moved to multiple accounts and may have been removed.
“The problem is deeper than most people realize. The governor has put himself in disorder keeping $ 250 million in an account connected to Aisha. He tampered with the funds and can no longer explain them,” revealed a source that is familiar with the matter.
Since then the EFCC has frozen 136 bank accounts associated with Achimugu in ten different banks.
Investigators also discovered that they check more than 20 companies registered with similar addresses, forgivement of suspicions of a network of conchinry companies used to move illegal funds.
Achimugu, who is the founder of the Felak Concept Group, was summoned by the EFCC to appear at his Port Harcourt office on March 25, 2025.
It has not been able to honor the invitation and is now officially declared fugitive by the law by the anti-innesto agency.
