EFCC declares City Boys women leader Halimat Tejuosho wanted

Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared Halimat Tejuosho, South-West zonal women leader of the City Boys Movement, wanted over an alleged case of obtaining money by false pretence.

The anti-graft agency announced this in a notice published on its official X page on Monday and signed by its spokesperson Dele Oyewale.

According to the EFCC, the 41-year-old is being sought in connection with an ongoing investigation.

“The public is hereby notified that Halimat Adenike Tejuosho, whose photograph appears above, is wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in an alleged case of obtaining money by false pretence,” the notice stated.

The commission identified her as an indigene of Lagos State and said her last known address is House A26, Aso Grove Estate, Maitama Extension, Abuja.

It asked anyone with useful information on her whereabouts to contact its offices in Ibadan, Uyo, Sokoto, Maiduguri, Benin, Makurdi, Kaduna, Ilorin, Enugu, Kano, Lagos, Gombe, Port Harcourt or Abuja.
The EFCC also urged members of the public to reach out through its official communication channels or report to the nearest police station or other security agencies.

Halimat Tejuosho is linked to the City Boys Movement, a support group for President Bola Tinubu. She was recently named the group’s South-West zonal women leader.
According to an earlier statement by the group, her role includes coordinating women-focused activities in the region, political mobilisation, civic engagement and advocacy.

Tejuosho is also the founder of Haleems Integrated Services Limited.

Her name has surfaced in previous fraud-related allegations.
In 2025, reports said she was questioned by the EFCC over claims of an appointment and contract scam.

She was accused of collecting money from people with promises of federal appointments and government contracts.
The reports also alleged that forged documents and fake appointment letters were used to mislead victims.

In 2023, Tejuosho denied claims that she fled abroad to avoid a court case filed by a former business partner. She also denied allegations of wrongdoing.
