The Kano Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on Tuesday, February 3, 2026, arrested a Kannywood Star, Samha Inuwa, over alleged Naira mutilation.

Naija News reports that Inuwa was arrested following a viral video circulated on social media platforms where she was seen conspicuously cleaning mucus from her nose using Naira notes.

Following the release of the viral video, the Commission swung into action by tracing and subsequently arresting her to answer questions.

The EFCC confirmed in a statement that the actress is currently being held at the Commission’s detention facility while the investigation is ongoing.

Meanwhile, the Federal High Court, sitting in Maitama, Abuja, has fixed April 30, 2026, for ruling on the application filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for final forfeiture of a property owned by the former Acting Accountant General of the Federation, Chukwunyere Anamekwe Nwabuoku.

The court, presided over by Justice Mohammed Umar, took the decision on Tuesday, 3rd February, 2026.
