Nwabueze Defends Legitimacy of Made-in-Nigeria Office
George Nwabueze, the National Coordinator and Executive Director of the National Brands Development and Made in Nigeria Special Project Office, has rejected allegations from the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) that he operates a fictitious Federal Government agency. Nwabueze stated that the office has been a legitimate project under the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (OSGF) for approximately 16 years.
His comments followed an ICPC declaration that President Bola Tinubu had ordered his arrest over the alleged operation of a fake agency. Nwabueze emphasized that the Made in Nigeria Special Project Office has been functioning since July 16, 2010, and shared an appointment letter dated October 3, 2025, signed by Nadungu Gagare, which confirmed his role as National Coordinator/Executive Director.
The appointment is for five years, starting from July 2025, and includes responsibilities such as overseeing projects and coordinating activities across Nigeria.
