Businesswoman, Bola Shagaya is currently dressed in the robe of a money launderer.

Anti-corruption agency, Economic and Financial Crimes Commission made the allegation to justify the freezing of Shagaya’s bank account in the financial institution in which she is a stakeholder – Unity Bank.

Shagaya who is the in law of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is accused of laundering N3billion for former President Goodluck Jonathan.
