Adeeyo, a former banker and former Chairman of AXA Mansard Insurance Plc, brings a wealth of experience to the role.


Shankar, currently serving as the Chief Executive Officer of private equity investments firm Gateway Partners, previously held the position of CEO at Standard Chartered Plc.


Additionally, Remilekan Odunlami was appointed as a non-executive director for First Bank, while Anil Dua and Fatima Ali were appointed as independent non-executive directors. Odunlami, with prior experience as a Director at CitiBank Nigeria Limited and FirstBank, currently serves on the boards of Access Pensions Limited and Rand Merchant Bank Limited. Dua’s board affiliations include Dangote GSP Offshore FZE and Seychelles International Mercantile Banking Corporation, among others, while Ali, the founder of Santi Food and Beverage Limited, is actively involved in mental health charity initiatives.


The appointments of the five new directors are subject to the approval of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), underscoring the regulatory compliance aspect of the process.


Otedola’s ascension to the role of Chairman follows the exit of Ahmad Abdullahi. Otedola, also the Chairman of Geregu Power, brings his extensive business acumen and experience to his new position.
