United Capital Plc has appointed Uche Ike as the Company’s new chairman, board of directors.
This follows the retirement of Professor Chika Mordi, chairman of the Board, and Emmanuel Nnorom, non-executive director. This transition aligns with the recent directive from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on board appointments and director tenure for Public Companies and Significant Public Interest Capital Market Operators.

United Capital’s general counsel/group company secretary, Dr. Leo Okafor, said in a statement, “It underscores United Capital’s unwavering commitment to sound corporate governance, with regulatory compliance serving as a fundamental pillar of our business.

Their retirement marks the completion of their tenures on the United Capital board. Prof. Chika Mordi, who joined as a non-executive director in January 2013 and became chairman in January 2014, and Emmanuel Nnorom, who joined the Board in January 2014, have both made invaluable contributions to the company.

“During their tenure, both directors played key roles in shaping the Group’s growth, transformation, and governance journey.”

United Capital profoundly appreciates both leaders for their years of service, invaluable contributions, and alignment with our governance principles.
