President Bola Tinubu has ordered the immediate arrest of Prince George Buchi Nwabueze following the discovery of a purported fake agency operating within the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF).
The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) uncovered the National Brands Development and Made in Nigeria Special Project Office during its ongoing investigation into the alleged fake Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council operated by Adeyemi Matthew.
ICPC Chairman, Dr Musa Adamu Aliyu, SAN, disclosed this on Friday after briefing President Tinubu at the State House.
According to Aliyu, office space within the SGF’s premises was illegally allocated to the purported agency.
Tinubu also ordered the immediate suspension of three permanent secretaries over the development:
M.S. Danjuma
Engr. Nadungu Gagare
Richard P. Pheelangwah
The ICPC said the discovery formed part of its wider investigation into the alleged establishment and operation of unauthorised government agencies.
More details are expected as the investigation continues.
