Friday, March 14, 2025 - The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has not arrested or detained popular businesswoman and philanthropist Aisha Achimugu; contrary to reports circulating on social media, her media aide, David Abakpa, has said
‘’I understand your concerns regarding the recent false reports about
Dr. Mrs. Aisha Achimugu, CEO of Felak Group. Several reputable news outlets
have confirmed that these allegations of her arrest by the Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) are unfounded. It has been clarified that
Mrs. Achimugu was not arrested and was out of the country at the time these
rumors surfaced.
Mrs. Achimugu is a distinguished businesswoman and philanthropist. She
serves as the Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Felak
Concept Group, a consortium with interests in sectors such as Engineering,
Maritime, Oil and Gas, and ICT Learning and Development. In addition to
her corporate endeavors, she founded the SAM Empowerment Foundation, a
non-governmental organization dedicated to empowering women, youths, and
children in Nigeria.
These baseless allegations appear to be part of a smear campaign aimed
at tarnishing her hard earned reputation. It’s essential to rely on verified
information and credible news sources to avoid the spread of misinformation.
Ordinarily Dr. Mrs Achimugu OFR would not entertain us responding to
these baseless rumors, however it has become pertinent that we respond to these
malicious stories as these miscreants could attempt to successfully tarnish a
reputation built over time through hardwork and resilience.''
