This move comes in the wake of revelations that a staff member embezzled a staggering forty-four billion Naira over a two-year period.

The former CEO, Adesola Adeduntan, abruptly resigned in April, issuing a brief resignation letter from Washington, where he was attending the annual World Bank/IMF meetings. “I have, however, decided to proceed on retirement with effect from 20 April 2024 to pursue other interests,” stated Adeduntan, who had been with the bank since 2014.

First Bank did not disclose the details surrounding Adeduntan’s sudden resignation.

In his place, the bank appointed Olusegun Alebiosu as the new managing director and chief executive.

 

Alebiosu, who has been with the bank since 2016, previously served as the executive director, chief risk officer, and executive compliance officer since January 2022. Prior to these roles, he was the group executive/chief risk officer.
