Summary

Mukhtar Adamu Muhammad, a 35-year-old Lagos-based bureau de change operator born August 2, 1990, was designated by the U.S. Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) on June 22, 2026, under Executive Order 13224 for allegedly facilitating financial transfers on behalf of ISIS in West Africa (ISIS-WA/ISWAP). He is alleged to have channeled ISIS funds through three Nigerian money service businesses he owns — Nine to Nine Exchange Bureau de Change Limited, Manhattan Bureau de Change Limited, and Generation Currency Bureau de Change Limited — operating across Lagos and Kano states. The designation is reported to be the first OFAC action specifically targeting ISIS crypto financing infrastructure in West Africa.
