Aisha Achimugu Alleges EFCC Persecution, Fears for Life After Asset Seizure
Businesswoman Aisha Achimugu accuses the EFCC of persecution, intimidation and abuse of process. She says the agency’s actions have endangered her life, damaged her reputation and crippled her business. A High Court in Abuja granted a final forfeiture order on assets linked to Achimugu. These include jewellery valued at over N4.6 billion, 11 luxury vehicles worth about N4.29 billion, $50,000 and ₦30 million in cash. An earlier ruling also forfeited $13 million tied to her firm. Achimugu insists the funds were payments for petroleum licences and is challenging the order on appeal. She alleges that EFCC operatives raided her home, seized her property and intimidated her family. She claims her US visa was revoked and that she missed out on an executive programme abroad. The EFCC maintains its actions stem from ongoing money laundering investigations and has not yet responded to her latest allegations.
