Ismaila Mustapha, better known as Mompha, a prominent Nigerian businessman currently facing charges of money laundering, has launched scathing criticism against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), branding it as "useless" and corrupt.
In a fiery Instagram post, Mompha responded to recent revelations in court where an EFCC investigator disclosed the discovery of N35 billion in two bank accounts linked to him. The businessman, alongside his company Ismalob Global Investment Limited, has been embroiled in legal proceedings since January 2022.

The trial, unfolding at the Special Offences Court in Ikeja, Lagos, has seen the EFCC present multiple witnesses, including Idi Musa, who detailed the discovery of funds allegedly tied to Mompha's illicit activities.
According to reports, the charges against Mompha include conspiracy to launder funds, retention of proceeds from criminal conduct, and failure to disclose assets. The EFCC alleges that Mompha's financial dealings involved unlawful activities and fraudulent transactions.
Despite the EFCC's efforts to prosecute Mompha, he has vehemently denied the allegations, maintaining his innocence throughout the legal proceedings.
The case continues to draw public attention as it underscores ongoing efforts by Nigerian authorities to combat financial crimes and enforce accountability in the country's financial sector.
