Nwabueze Buchi George, the embattled national coordinator of the National Brands Development and Made in Nigeria Special Project Office, has released an appointment letter he claims was issued by the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (OSGF).

George shared the document after President Bola Tinubu ordered his arrest over the alleged operation of a fake government agency within the SGF office.

The President also directed the immediate suspension of three permanent secretaries following findings by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC).

George, in a post on LinkedIn, said the letter, dated October 3, 2025, appointed him National Coordinator/Executive Director of the Made in Nigeria Project Office for a five-year tenure beginning in July 2025.

The document, which bears the OSGF letterhead, purportedly assigns him responsibility for developing and supervising programmes, projects and policies, as well as coordinating regional and state coordinators.

It also states that the project office would operate temporarily from Room B53, Ground Floor, within the OSGF complex.

The development comes amid an ICPC investigation into the alleged fake Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council and other weaknesses in government procedures.

TheCable had also reported that George sent letters to several state governments asking them to nominate coordinators for the purported Made in Nigeria Project Office.
