Popular social media influencer Ismail Mustapha, widely known as Mompha, has criticised the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for linking his name to the arraignment of one of his associates over an alleged ₦206 million fraud.
The EFCC’s Lagos Zonal Directorate 1 on Tuesday, January 20, 2026, arraigned Sarumi Samusudeen Babafemi before Justice Rahman Oshodi of the Special Offences Court in Ikeja, Lagos, over allegations bordering on conspiracy, concealment, and transfer of proceeds of crime amounting to ₦206 million.
Babafemi, alongside his companies—606 Autos Limited, 606 Music Limited, and Splash Off Entertainment Limited—was charged on five counts under the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.
The anti-graft agency described Babafemi as an associate of Mompha, who is currently facing a separate money laundering trial.
Reacting on Instagram, Mompha lashed out at the EFCC, questioning why his name was mentioned in the case. He accused the agency of harassment and recalled its failed attempt to extradite him from Dubai, urging the commission to stop involving him in matters he described as unrelated.
