Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Wednesday brought businesswoman Aisha Achimugu before the Federal High Court in Abuja, in compliance with a court order.

Achimugu, flanked by two female EFCC officers, arrived at the court around 11:35 a.m. This follows Monday’s directive by Justice Inyang Ekwo, who had ordered the industrialist—accused of fleeing the country—to respond to the EFCC’s invitation by noon on Tuesday.
