The Board of Directors selected Mr Jeremy Awori to succeed Mr Ayeyemi as Group Chief Executive Officer, saying that the relevant effective dates will be communicated in due course.
Ecobank Group Chairman, Alain Nkontchou, thanked Mr Ayemi for his immense contribution during his seven years at the helm of the Ecobank Group, Christiane Bossom, Group Corporate Communications Manager of ETI said in a statement on Monday.
“Ade can be rightly proud of his success in leading the implementation of the Roadmap to Leadership strategy, navigating Ecobank through challenges, seizing opportunities, and positioning Ecobank for sustainable long-term growth.
“Ade’s deep knowledge, unrivaled vision, commitment and infinite passion made all the difference. It has been a real pleasure working with him. I count on his continuous support to ensure a smooth transition as we onboard Jeremy Awori as the new Group CEO.
“Jeremy Awori is a highly respected leader in the banking industry with significant achievements in his previous capacities. The Board of Directors strongly believes that his drive and strong focus on results will be vital in steering the Group in its next phase,” he said.
Mr Ayeyemi expressed his deep gratitude for the opportunity to lead the Ecobank Group and stated: “It is a privilege to lead an amazing team of Ecobankers in bringing the Ecobank Group back to growth and continuing to realise our commendable pan-African mandate.”
