President Bola Tinubu has terminated the appointment of Ahmed Lawan Kuru as the Managing Director/ Chief Executive Officer of the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON), naming Gbenga Alade as his replacement.
According to Presidential spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, Alade’s appointment is subject to confirmation by the Nigerian Senate.
Aside from Alade, the president also appointed the following persons into the management team of AMCON:
Aminu Ismail — Executive Director
Adeshola Lamidi — Executive Director
Lucky Adaghe — Executive Director
“The President expects unflagging dedication, professionalism, and dutifulness from the new appointees so as to ensure that the operations of AMCON are more efficient, transparent, and in consonance with his determination to sanitize the nation’s financial system to maximize value and enhance investor confidence in the Nigerian economy,” Ngelale said in his statement.
