Agunloye, who is from the Akoko North Local Government Area in Ondo State, was declared wanted due to an allegation of corruption and forgery.
His image was shared alongside useful information from the anti-graft agency website.
“Anybody with useful information as to his whereabouts should please contact the Commission in its Benin, Kaduna, Ibadan, Sokoto, Maiduguri, Mardi, Ilorin, Enugu, Kano, Lagos, Gombe, Uyo, Port Harcourt, and Abuja offices or contact 08093322644 or email info@efcc.gov.ng or the nearest police station and any other security agencies,” the EFCC statement read.
Prime Business Africa reports that Agunloye was questioned by the anti-graft agency in September on a purported $6 billion Build, Operate, and Transfer deal.
The Commission also declared Iluyomade Tolulope Akinwale wanted over an alleged case of obtaining money by false pretence.
Akinwale, 39, is from Ondo East Local Government Area, Ondo state.
