Keystone Bank Limited, on Friday,  reassured its stakeholders, including customers and partners across the country, of the unhindered and smooth running of its operations as new management takes over.

A few hours after dissolving the board of directors governing Polaris, Union, and Keystone banks, the CBN appointed new executive directors to oversee the affairs of the deposit money banks.

In a statement signed by the acting Director of Corporate Communications, Sidi Hakama, the apex bank said the appointment takes immediate effect.

According to the statement, Yetunde Oni, the first female CEO of the Standard Chartered bank in Sierra Leone, was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of Union Bank, while Mannir  Ringim was selected as the Executive Director of the tier-2 bank.

For Keystone Bank, Hassan Imam was appointed as its Chief Executive Officer, while Chioma Mang became Executive Director.

But in a statement on Friday by the company, Keystone Bank noted that it would continue to operate and serve its numerous customers within the guidelines of the CBN under the direction of the bank’s new leadership headed by Hassan Imam.

The statement read, “Following the Central Bank of Nigeria’s appointment of a new Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer for Keystone Bank, Mr. Hassan Imam, we would like to assure the general public of Keystone Bank’s continued operations within the guidelines of the CBN under the direction of the bank’s new leadership.

“Keystone Bank continues to operate in all its branches and across all channels.

“We assure our stakeholders, including customers, partners, and other stakeholders, that we are fully committed to serving them, as we remain dedicated to the safety of our customers’ deposits, financial well-being, and upholding the trust placed in us by our stakeholders.

“Before assuming the position, Imam who has over 25 years of banking experience, had served as the Executive Director of the North Directorate at Fidelity Bank since January 2020.

“Hassan Imam holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Economics and three other Master’s Degrees, including an MBA which he obtained from Business School Netherlands. He is a member of the Chartered Public Accountant.”
