EFCC Declares Mompha WANTED

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared Ismaila Mustapha, the socialite better known as Mompha, a wanted person.

“Ismaila, 38, hails from Ogbomosho Local Govt Area of Oyo State.

“His last know address: 21, Fagbenro Street, Idi-Araba, Surulere, Lagos State.

“Anybody with useful information as to his whereabouts should please contact the Commission in its Benin, Kaduna, Ibadan, Sokoto, Gombe, Maiduguri, Makurdi, llorin, Enugu, Kano, Lagos, Gombe, Port Harcourt and Abuja offices.”

Mompha and his company Ismalob Global Investment Ltd were arraigned by the commission over alleged N6 billion fraud on January 12.

A fresh eight-count charge was brought against him.

He was remanded in the custody of the EFCC but later granted a bail of N200 million which he couldn’t fulfill.

The bail sum was later slashed to N25 million.

The EFCC had, on June 10, accused Mompha of flouting a court order by traveling to Dubai with a new passport.

On June 22, a Lagos court revoked the bail granted to him after the controversial socialite’s absence for trial.
