Flamboyant business mogul, socialite, and fashion icon, Aisha Achimugu, has been arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
Sources reveal that Achimugu was taken into custody last weekend after a petition from a civil society group accused her of shady dealings in a multi-million-naira contract awarded to her company by a South-West state.
Though she was granted bail the following day, she has been ordered to report back next week for further grilling.
Achimugu, the influential Chairman of Bluewave Exploration and Production Limited, has long been a key player in Nigeria’s business and political landscape.
She spearheaded the ambitious Deep-Sea Port project in South-South Nigeria, feat hailed as a historic achievement for a female entrepreneur.
But now, her empire may be facing its biggest test yet.
Beyond her boardroom conquests, Aisha Achimugu is a force to be reckoned with in elite circles from Lagos to Abuja.
Known for throwing lavish parties, wearing designer outfits, and generally living a jet-set lifestyle, she commands attention wherever she goes.
Her Instagram page is a shrine to opulence, overflowing with images of exotic vacations, exclusive yacht parties, and private jets. Achimugu has perfected the art of flaunting wealth. But will this controversy dim her spotlight?
As the EFCC probe deepens, questions swirl about whether Achimugu’s gilded empire is built on solid ground or about to crumble.
Will she clear her name and reclaim her throne in Nigeria’s power circles, or is this just the beginning of a spectacular fall from grace? (STREET JOURNAL)
