Another Fake Agency Uncovered: National Brands Development and Made-in-Nigeria Special Project Office

So this Agency now declared fake by the   Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission, ICPC may be a bigger scandal. 

The promoter  Prince George Buchi Nwabueze operated from an office which has been illegally allocated to it within the premises of the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.

And Nwabueze appointed State coordinators and daily received visitors and guests.

Of course the ICPC Nigeria detected internal collaboration leading to the Presidential order for the immediate suspension of the following permanent secretaries; M.S. Danjuma, Nadungu Gagare, and Richard P. Pheelangwah.

Another manifestation of institutional weakness 

Excerpt from the ICPC 

 “Upon further briefing by ICPC to Mr President on the ongoing investigations into the fake Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council and procedural weaknesses in the public service, the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission has uncovered another fake agency and office operating under the name National Brands Development and Made-in-Nigeria Special Project Office, which has been illegally allocated office space within the premises of the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.

The fake agency office, National Brands Development and Made in Nigeria Special Project Office, was promoted by one George Buchi Nwabueze, with active suspected collaborators in the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, contrary to extant laws and without authorisation of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

The promoter was discovered to also operate under four other variations of his name: George Nathan, George Nathan Nwabueze, Honourable George Buchi Nwabueze, Prince George Buchi Nwabueze and George Nwabueze.

I have briefed Mr President comprehensively on these new developments. ICPC will continue with its investigations accordingly.
