  "summary": "The Secretary to the Anambra State Government, Chiamaka Nnake, has clarified her involvement with a purported federal agency operating from the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation. Nnake stated that she was nominated as the \"focal person\" for Anambra State and that the office requested Anambra to host the South-East Made-in-Nigeria Fair, which was approved by the state government. However, after the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission discovered the office was purportedly fake, Nnake clarified that the state government had been misled into hosting its maiden Made-in-Nigeria fair in Anambra in December.",
