Tinubu reinstates suspended permanent secretary

President Bola Tinubu has reinstated Mohammed Danjuma, the suspended Permanent Secretary, Finance (Special Duties), as of October 21, 2026. This decision was conveyed by Olumuyiwa Abel, the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, through a letter. Danjuma was initially suspended on August 21, 2026, in connection with an investigation into activities of the National Brands Development and Made in Nigeria Special Project Office, an organization allegedly promoted by George Buchi Nwabueze.

The reinstatement came after due diligence and approval from Tinubu, who directed Danjuma to resume his duties in accordance with the Public Service Rules and ethical standards of the Federal Civil Service.
