President Bola Tinubu has approved the reinstatement of M.S. Danjuma, Permanent Secretary, Finance (Special Duties), with effect from 21 October 2026.
The Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Olumuyiwa Enitan Abel, conveyed the approval in a letter dated 22 October 2026.
Why he was suspended
Danjuma was suspended on 21 August 2026, together with two other permanent secretaries, after a report by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC). The report concerned the activities of a purported agency called the National Brands Development and Made in Nigeria Special Project Office.
The agency was allegedly promoted by George Buchi Nwabueze, with suspected involvement of public servants in the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.
The reinstatement
After what the letter describes as due diligence, the President lifted Danjuma’s suspension and directed him to resume duty in line with the Public Service Rules, applicable regulations and the ethical standards of the Federal Civil Service.
