The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has intensified its investigation into a massive financial scandal involving businesswoman Aisha Achimugu Sulaiman, after discovering luxury items and large sums of cash in her Abuja residence linked to a missing $250 million.

Acting on a court warrant, EFCC operatives stormed Achimugu’s home at No. 61 Hassan Usman Katsina Street, where they uncovered a staggering haul: N30 million in cash, $50,000 in foreign currency, and boxes containing gold, diamond, and silver jewelry valued at over N1 billion. The discovery is part of a broader investigation into alleged money laundering and misappropriation of political campaign funds.

Sources close to the investigation revealed that the $250 million in question was reportedly entrusted to Achimugu by Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu as part of his 2027 campaign preparations. Insiders claim the funds were meant for safekeeping but were allegedly moved across multiple accounts and may have been squandered.

“The issue is deeper than most people know. Sanwo-Olu put himself in a mess when he went and kept that $250 million in an account belonging to Aisha. Aisha has messed with the funds and cannot account for it anymore,” a source familiar with the case disclosed.

The EFCC has reportedly frozen 136 bank accounts linked to Achimugu across ten banks. Investigators also discovered she operates over 20 companies registered with nearly identical addresses—suggesting a network of shell corporations possibly used to move funds.

Achimugu, currently believed to be in London, was summoned by the EFCC to appear at its Port Harcourt office on March 25, 2025. She has since failed to show up and is now officially wanted by the anti-graft agency.

In a shocking political move, Harrison Gwamnishu, Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the Delta State Governor on Civil Society and Youth Mobilization, has tendered his resignation, citing deep dissatisfaction with the government’s handling of escalating insecurity across communities in the state. Gwamnishu submitted his resignation letter on Friday, April 25, 2025, addressed to Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, Executive Governor of Delta State. He emphasized that his decision followed “considerable reflection” and was driven by a “deep sense of disappointment” over the administration’s failure to act on security concerns he consistently raised.

In his letter, Gwamnishu detailed his efforts to draw the government’s attention to the worsening security situation, including numerous messages, calls, and submission of blueprint documents proposing actionable solutions.

However, he lamented that all attempts were “thrown out,” and meaningful solutions were “not being accepted” by the administration.

“As a civil rights leader, I accepted this appointment as a commitment to serve and protect our community,” Gwamnishu wrote. “However, the continuous escalation of insecurity and the persistent lack of action to provide effective resolutions have rendered me unable to fulfil my duties with the integrity and effectiveness that I believe are essential.” He further stated that his resignation is intended to serve as a wake-up call to the administration, urging it to prioritize the safety and security of Delta State citizens.

In a move that has sent shockwaves through Nigeria’s political landscape, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (PDP, Kogi Central) has penned a biting, satirical letter of “apology” to Senate President Godswill Akpabio, laced with sarcasm and veiled criticism. The letter, which surfaced on social media on Sunday evening. The post read:

From the Desk of Senator Natasha Akpoti Uduaghan

Dear Distinguished Senate President Godswill Akpabio,

It is with the deepest sarcasm and utmost theatrical regret that I tender this apology for the grievous crime of possessing dignity and self-respect in your most exalted presence. I have reflected extensively on my unforgivable failure to recognize that legislative success in certain quarters is apparently not earned through merit, but through the ancient art of compliance — of the very personal kind.

How remiss of me not to understand that my refusal to indulge your… “requests” was not merely a personal choice, but a constitutional violation of the unwritten laws of certain men’s entitlement. Truly, I must apologize for prioritizing competence over capitulation, vision over vanity, and the people’s mandate over private dinners behind closed doors.

I now realize the catastrophic consequences of my actions: legislation delayed, tempers flared, and the tragic bruising of egos so large they require their own postcodes. For this disruption to the natural order of “quid pro quo,” I bow my head in fictional shame.

Please find it in your magnanimous heart — somewhere buried deep beneath layers of entitlement — to forgive this stubborn woman who mistakenly believed that her seat in the Senate was earned through elections, not erections.

I remain,
Yours in eternal resistance,
Senator Natasha H Akpoti Uduaghan
Unafraid, Unbought, and Unbroken
