The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared an Abuja-based 41-year-old businesswoman, Halimat Tejuosho, wanted over an alleged case of obtaining money by false pretence.

Ms Tejuosho, an Abuja society woman, is the founder of Haleems Integrated Services Limited.

In a notice published on its official X  page on Monday, and signed by the EFCC spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, the anti-graft agency said Ms Tejuosho, whose photograph accompanied the announcement, is being sought in connection with an ongoing investigation.

The commission identified her as an indigene of Lagos State, adding that her last known address is House A26, Aso Grove Estate, Maitama Extension in Abuja.

“The public is hereby notified that Halimat Adenike Tejuosho… is wanted by the EFCC in an alleged case of obtaining money by false pretence,” the statement said.

Ms Tejuosho is reportedly the South-West zonal women leader of the City Boys Movement, a pro-Tinubu political support group.
