Akinduro, 51, is a native of Ondo State, with his last known address listed as 272 Patience Coker Street, Ajose Adeogun, Victoria Island, Lagos. The EFCC has asked anyone with information regarding his whereabouts to contact its offices in Ibadan, Uyo, Sokoto, Maiduguri, Benin, Makurdi, Kaduna, Ilorin, Enugu, Kano, Lagos, Gombe, Port Harcourt, or Abuja, or to reach them via phone or email.

This development follows previous legal action against Akinduro. In April 2001, he and his company, His Grace Integrated Solution Limited, along with two others, were arraigned by the EFCC before Justice Funmilayo Akinlade of the Lagos High Court. The charges included forgery, stealing, and conspiracy.
