Access Holdings Plc (the Holdco) has announced that Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede is returning as its Non-Executive Chairman.

This decision was made after the untimely passing of the previous Group Chief Executive Officer, Herbert Wigwe.

Mr. Aig-Imoukhuede, CFR replaces Mr. Abubakar Jimoh, the erstwhile Chairman of the HoldCo who remains on the Board as an Independent Non-Executive Director.

This visionary and accomplished leader is bringing an outstanding record of accomplishments, wealth of expertise and leadership to guide the Group into a new era of success.

In response to the untimely passing of the immediate past Group Chief Executive Officer of Access Holdings, Dr. Herbert Wigwe, CFR and following extensive consultations with key stakeholders, the Holdco Board unanimously decided to invite Mr. Aig-Imoukhuede to the helm of governance.

With an illustrious career spanning several decades in the banking and finance sector, Mr. Aig-Imoukhuede has proven to be an exceptional and influential leader, having admirably laid a solid foundation for Access Bank’s success as Group Chief Executive Officer between 2002 and 2013 ably supported by his partner and deputy, the late Dr. Herbert Wigwe, CFR who later succeeded him.

Under Mr. Aig-Imoukhuede’s leadership, Access Bank experienced remarkable growth and established itself as a trusted financial institution within the community. The Bank transformed from a minor player into one of Nigeria’s top 5 banks with presence in 9 other African countries and the United Kingdom. Under his stewardship, Access Bank grew its customer base from ten thousand to over six million with more than 5,000 employees and an asset base of USD $12 billion, achieving numerous milestones and becoming a globally recognized name. His strategic vision, innovative thinking, and deep market insight were instrumental to shaping the Bank’s success.

Following his retirement as the Bank’s CEO in December 2013, Mr. Aig-Imoukhuede cofounded the Tengen Family Office Limited which oversees a significant portfolio of investments and businesses in banking, finance, insurance, technology, real estate, and energy. Through the Aig-Imoukhuede Foundation, he is focused on building Nigeria’s next generation of government leaders, helping transform public sector effectiveness, and improving access to quality primary health care.

Despite it's kinetic connotation, power is EXTREMELY stagnant. It's wield by the same small group of people over extended periods of time.

The CEO of 2002 is back as the Chairman of 2024.

The same thing is obtainable in politics and everywhere power is brokered. Same people control it.

The idea, of course, is that these people are MORE competent because of their experience. Nonsense!

There are ALWAYS people more competent that those who wield power. But the wielders of power hold it CAPTIVE. Never letting go. Turning the very force of nature into something stagnant to be used for their sole benefit.

Anyway, congratulations to him. But they should try to bring new people in. Stop trying to recapture the glory of days long gone.
