In a wanted notice signed by its Head of Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale, and published on its official X handle on Friday, the Commission urged members of the public with credible information about Ogundele’s whereabouts to come forward.
The EFCC statement read:
*“The public is hereby notified that Olasijibomi Ogundele of Sujimoto Luxury Construction Limited, whose photograph appears above, is wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in an alleged case of diversion of funds and money laundering.
Ogundele is a 44-year-old indigene of Ori-Ade Local Government Area of Osun State. His last known address is: G29, Banana Island, Ikoyi, Lagos State.
Anybody with useful information as to his whereabouts should please contact the Commission in its Ibadan, Uyo, Sokoto, Maiduguri, Benin, Makurdi, Kaduna, Ilorin, Enugu, Kano, Lagos, Gombe, Port Harcourt or Abuja offices, or through 08093322644; its e-mail address: info@efcc.gov.ng, or the nearest Police Station and other security agencies.”*
Although the EFCC did not specify the amount allegedly diverted, the notice indicates that Ogundele is under investigation for high-level financial crimes.
The declaration also reflects the Commission’s growing focus on high-profile figures in Nigeria’s private sector, particularly those suspected of laundering illicit funds through luxury real estate.
