A Nigerian businesswoman, Aisha Achimugu, who made national headlines last year for throwing a seven-day birthday party at the $132,000 per night Calivigny Island is being investigated for fraud.
Achimugu, a prominent socialite and the Group Managing Director of Felak Concept Group, has found herself at the center of a new legal controversy.
Achimugu is accused of misappropriating $250 million, allegedly provided to her by an unnamed governor for the purpose of funding the 2027 election.
This allegation comes after a recent search by operatives from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) at her residence on No. 61 Hassan Usman Kastina Street, Abuja.
During the search, the EFCC uncovered N30 million in cash, $50,000 in cash, as well as several boxes of gold, diamonds, and silver jewelry, valued at over N1 billion.
Additionally, the EFCC is currently investigating 136 bank accounts across 10 different banks, both in her personal and corporate names.
Sources suggest that Achimugu may have used up to 20 different companies to facilitate her alleged activities.
This latest investigation follows a previous EFCC announcement that declared Achimugu wanted for alleged fraud and money laundering just weeks ago.
