Businesswoman and socialite, Aisha Achimugu, has said her company legitimately acquired an oil bloc through a transparent bidding process conducted between 2022 and 2024.

Achimugu made the disclosure on Monday while fielding questions on Channels Television’s on Politics Today on Monday.

DAILY POST reported that Achimugu had earlier dismissed claims that $13 million was recovered from her residence, insisting that only $50,000 and N13 million were found during a raid on her home.

According to her, her firm participated in both the deep offshore bid round held between 2022 and 2023 and a mini bid round conducted between 2023 and 2024.

She stated that her company, which operates in the oil and gas sector, met all requirements and emerged successful in the process.

DAILY POST reports that her comments come amid scrutiny by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, which had previously declared her wanted over allegations of criminal conspiracy and money laundering.

The anti-graft agency had also carried out a search at her residence as part of its investigation, with differing reports emerging over the amount of money recovered during the operation.

She said: “There are two bid processes that were at the deep offshore bid round that happened between 2022 and 2023 and there’s another mini bid round that also happened between 2023 and 2024.

“We participated in this process. Like, you know, we are operating oil and gas company, because we have all the assets that we’re dealing with, and because I’m very audacious and ambitious, I have the team to put to it.

“We went through that process, and by the grace of God, we won the process. Very transparently. It was a public process. It wasn’t selected.”
