Access Holdings Plc has announced the return of Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede, as its Non-Executive Chairman, replacing Abubakar Jimoh.


The Board unanimously decided to invite Aig-Imoukhuede to lead the organization in a statement on Wednesday.

The bank’s asset base surged to USD $12 billion, establishing itself as a globally recognized financial institution.


Since retiring as CEO in 2013, Aig-Imoukhuede has been actively involved in various ventures, including co-founding the Tengen Family Office Limited, which oversees a diverse portfolio of investments spanning banking, finance, insurance, technology, real estate, and energy. Additionally, through the Aig-Imoukhuede Foundation, he has been dedicated to nurturing Nigeria’s next generation of leaders and improving access to quality healthcare.


Aig-Imoukhuede’s return to Access Holdings as Non-Executive Chairman underscores the Board’s commitment to building upon the foundation laid by him and Dr. Wigwe. In his new role, Aig-Imoukhuede will collaborate with the Board to provide strategic guidance to the executive management team, leveraging his extensive experience and industry knowledge.


Expressing his excitement about Aig-Imoukhuede’s appointment, Abubakar Jimoh, past Chairman of Access Holdings, said, “Mr. Aig-Imoukhuede’s appointment to the Board and subsequent election as Chairman is a landmark development for Access Holdings. All our board members are excited about our future.”
