Alleged money laundering: EFCC declares Sanwo-Olu’s ally, Aisha Achimugu wanted

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared Aisha Sulaiman Achimugu wanted for alleged money laundering and criminal conspiracy.

Achimugu, a known associate of Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, is accused of secretly transferring funds to opposition politicians Peter Obi and Atiku Abubakar during the 2023 elections.

Reports suggest that President Bola Tinubu was angered by the discovery, seeing it as a betrayal that could harm Sanwo-Olu’s political future.

Atiku Abubakar’s team has strongly denied the allegations, calling them false and politically motivated.

Despite these denials, the EFCC officially declared Achimugu wanted, urging the public to provide information on her whereabouts. The commission shared her last known address in Abuja and released contact details for people to report any leads.

This case continues to spark political debates, raising questions about financial dealings in Nigeria’s political landscape.
