Mr Sule, whose appointment is subject to the approval of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), is taking over affairs of the bank following the resignation of Mr Ohiwerei, who wants to pursue other personal interests.

In a statement by the General Counsel and Company Secretary of the bank, Dr Michael Agamah, on Saturday, it was emphasised that the board recognized and appreciated Mr Obeahon’s immense contributions to the growth of Keystone Bank and the visibility the lender had attained as a brand in the past 18 months.

He has over 29 years of cutting-edge banking experience with competences in Corporate Banking, Operations, Treasury Management, Credit Structuring, Corporate Planning, as well as possession of very strong relationship management skills.

Mr Sule had also served briefly as the Managing Director of Sterling Capital Limited, the Investment Banking Subsidiary of Sterling Bank Plc in 2009.
