Court Dismisses Bizwoman Aisha Achimugu’s Fundamental Rights Suit Against EFCC

The Federal High Court in Abuja has dismissed a fundamental human rights suit filed by Abuja‑based businesswoman Aisha Achimugu against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).


Justice M.S. Liman, who delivered the judgment on Monday, October 10, 2026, stated that the EFCC acted within its powers when it searched Achimugu’s residence and seized cars, jewellery and other items. The judge held that the Commission had the legal authority to conduct the search after receiving intelligence on alleged criminal activities linked to the plaintiff.

In the suit, marked FHC/ABJ/CS/466/2026, Achimugu had asked the court to determine whether the EFCC’s actions were lawful. She also sought enforcement of her right to privacy and requested an order restraining the EFCC from further harassment or invasion of her home. Part of her claim included a demand for ₦10 billion in damages for what she described as an invasion of her privacy.

Justice Liman ruled that Achimugu and her legal team failed to provide sufficient grounds for the damages sought. He dismissed the monetary claim and stated that nothing prevented the EFCC from carrying out its statutory duties. The court concluded that the suit lacked merit, describing it as frivolous and filed in bad faith.
Reacting to the judgment, EFCC counsel Emenike Mgbemele said the ruling served the interest of justice and argued that the suit had been an attempt to waste the court’s time.
