The report that businesswoman and socialite, Aisha Achimugu, is in the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, for alleged fraud and money laundering has called forth her denial.
Achimugu denied by proxy through a statement released by her media aide David Abakpa, which reads in part: “It is a lie sponsored by enemies! Aisha Achimugu is never arrested or detained by the EFCC. Anyone can confirm from the Commission.
“Aisha Achimugu, in the first place, is not in the country. She left the country on a business trip last week.
“Mrs. Achimugu is a law abiding Nigerian who is highly respected internationally for her legitimate dealings. She is well known for creating jobs for Nigerian youths, thereby impacting thethe economy with her businesses.”
