The Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to release socialite and businesswoman Aisha Achimugu within 24 hours.
In a brief ruling on Wednesday, Justice Inyang Ekwo directed all parties, particularly the EFCC, to return to court on May 2, 2025, to report compliance with the order.
The Nation had earlier reported that Justice Ekwo, on Monday, directed Achimugu to submit herself to the EFCC over an ongoing investigation involving alleged money laundering and related offences.
Justice Ekwo further ruled that following her appearance at the EFCC office, the agency must bring her before the court on Wednesday, April 30, to provide an update.
Achimugu was arrested by EFCC operatives at about 5 a.m. on Tuesday at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.
