Tinubu Reinstates M.S. Danjuma as Permanent Secretary

President Bola Tinubu has reinstated M.S. Danjuma as the Permanent Secretary, Finance (Special Duties).

This decision comes after President Tinubu had previously directed the suspension of three Permanent Secretaries due to the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offenses Commission (ICPC) uncovering a fake agency in the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (OSGF). The agency, allegedly promoted by George Buchi Nwabueze, was identified as the National Brands Development and Made in Nigeria Special Project Office, which operated without presidential authorization.

This revelation was part of ongoing investigations into the earlier fake Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council (PFIPC) and the weaknesses in government oversight. The Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Olumuyiwa Enitan Abel, announced that the suspension of M.S.

Danjuma was lifted effective October 22, 2026, and he has been directed to resume his duties in accordance with public service regulations and ethical standards.
