Commenting on the recent development, Mr. Aig-Imoukhuede said, “I am delighted that our robust succession planning framework has ensured the emergence of a worthy successor in the person of Mr. Abimbola Ogunbanjo. His background as a legal practitioner and successful corporate player combined with years of meritorious serv​ice as a Council member has equipped him with the knowledge and experience required to take the Exchange to higher levels of performance and development”.
The Chief Executive Officer of the NSE, Mr. Oscar N. Onyema, OON, thanked the outgoing President, Mr. Aig-Imoukhuede for his immense contributions, commitment and distinction in service. “Mr. Aig-Imoukhuede brought hands-on experience and business expertise to the Council which contributed to the development of the Exchange despite the harsh economic and policy environment that characterized his tenure”.
He also said that “The election of Mr. Ogunbanjo brings continuity and ensures that The Exchange will continue to deliver on its strategic objectives. NSE has already benefitted greatly from his broad experience and his contributions as the First Vice President of our Council. I look forward to working closely with Mr. Ogunbanjo in our journey to becoming Africa’s foremost securities exchange”.
On his part, the new Council President, Mr. Abimbola Ogunbanjo said “I am honoured to be elected President of the National Council of The Exchange. Taking the reins of leadership of this foremost Exchange is made easier by the transformational groundwork laid by my predecessor. I would like to thank the outgoing Council led by Mr. Aig-Imoukhuede for their stewardship of the Exchange over the last three years”.
