The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared Halimat Adenike Tejuosho, South-West Zonal Women Leader of the City Boys Movement, wanted over an alleged case of obtaining money by false pretence.
The declaration was made on Monday in an official notice issued by the Commission and signed by its Head of Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale.
According to the EFCC, Tejuosho is being sought in connection with ongoing investigations into suspected fraudulent activities. The anti-graft agency, however, did not disclose full details of the transactions or the total amount of money involved in the case.
The Commission called on members of the public with useful information on her whereabouts to contact any of its offices nationwide, the nearest police station, or other security agencies. It added that credible intelligence could also be forwarded through its official communication channels.
Tejuosho’s appearance on the EFCC wanted list has drawn attention due to her recent political visibility. She was appointed South-West Zonal Women Leader of the City Boys Movement, where she is tasked with grassroots mobilisation, civic engagement and coordinating women-focused political activities across the region.
The development has also revived earlier allegations against her. In 2025, the EFCC reportedly interrogated Tejuosho over her alleged involvement in an appointment and contract scam.
Tejuosho, who is the founder of Haleems Integrated Services Limited, was accused by multiple petitioners of collecting money from victims under the pretext of securing federal government appointments and contracts.
Counsel to one of the petitioners, Tolu Babaleye, had alleged that she operated a scheme using forged documents and fake appointment letters, while also claiming links to the Office of the National Security Adviser to lend credibility to the purported offers.
