Aisha Achimugu
Aisha Achimugu, managing director/CEO of Felak Concept Group, has reacted to the decision of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to declare her wanted over money laundering allegations.
On Friday, EFCC asked persons who know the whereabouts of Achimugu to notify the agency.
The anti-graft agency had said Achimugu was declared wanted in a “case of criminal conspiracy and money laundering”.
In a statement published on her official Instagram handle on Sunday, Achimugu said she had been inundated with calls and messages from friends and families over the past few days.

The statement was signed by Bodex Hungbo, head of media to Achimugu.
“We express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has reached out in concern and solidarity,” the statement reads.

In January 2024, Achimugu made the headlines when she set the Caribbean Island of Grenada alight with a seven-day 50th birthday party attended by some of the crème de la crème of the Nigerian entertainment industry and prominent figures — including a governor.
