Mompha Celebrates as Court Strikes Out EFCC Charges, Mocks Agency

Nigerian socialite Ismaila Mustapha, popularly known as Mompha, says a court has struck out the charges filed against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). The case dates back to 2019, and Mompha described the ruling as a vindication after years of legal uncertainty. He said the court found the charges amounted to an abuse of court process and forum shopping. Mompha accused the EFCC of harassment and called the prosecution baseless, while maintaining that he had always believed he would be cleared. After thanking his family, friends and legal team, he celebrated the ruling and mocked the agency in a social media post. The court’s decision does not, by itself, establish the truth of his separate claims about the EFCC’s conduct.
