EFCC Arrests Aisha Achimugu at Abuja Airport

In a high-profile turn of events, Aisha Sulaiman Achimugu, a notable business executive and socialite, has been apprehended by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). This news was confirmed by her legal representatives in a statement released on Tuesday.

#### Voluntary Return and Arrest Details

Achimugu arrived in the country from London of her own accord, highlighting her willingness to engage with the ongoing situation. The arrest took place early Tuesday morning, around 5 a.m., raising questions about the nature of the inquiries she is facing. Her attorney mentioned that, in court documents, Achimugu had indicated her intention to visit the EFCC on this date, as part of an investigation surrounding allegations of criminal conspiracy and money laundering.

#### Court Summons and Future Proceedings

Previously, Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court in Abuja had mandated Achimugu to appear before the EFCC on April 29, 2025, to address the allegations stemming from the investigation. Furthermore, the court has stated that she must return for additional proceedings on April 30, 2025, ensuring that this case remains under continual scrutiny.

The developments in this case have captured public interest and are likely to unfold further in the coming days, as both the EFCC and Achimugu’s legal team prepare for the challenges ahead.
