Over a year after her extravagant 50th birthday bash in Grenada, Aisha Achimugu has been arrested by EFCC at Abuja airport

More than a year after hosting a lavish 50th birthday party across two countries, Nigerian socialite and businesswoman Aisha Achimugu has been arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.

Achimugu, CEO of Felak Concept Group, made headlines in January 2024 when she celebrated her golden jubilee with a week-long luxury event in Grenada.

Guests were flown to Calivigny Island and Silversand Resort on Grand Anse Beach for a seven-day celebration packed with exclusive performances, African-themed dinners, kayaking adventures, and a glamorous all-white finale.

The festivities continued in Abuja, with two more parties at the Transcorp Hilton and the International Conference Centre.

The socialite’s display of opulence raised public eyebrows, prompting the Federal Capital Territory Internal Revenue Service (FCT-IRS) to issue a reminder to file her tax returns.

Nearly fifteen months later, on Friday, the EFCC declared Achimugu wanted for alleged money laundering and criminal conspiracy.

According to EFCC spokesperson Dele Oyewale, her last known address was in Maitama, Abuja.

The agency had called on the public to assist with information about her whereabouts.
