Skye Bank on Friday confirmed that four of its Executive Directors have immediately left the bank.

The bank said the affected directors who had served in executive management capacity for almost two years, left after voluntarily tendering their resignation.

The bank said to ensure that the departure of the top officials did not disrupt the smooth leadership progression and service delivery to its customers; all General Managers have been re-assigned.

The new senior officers who would oversee the affected directorates include Segun Opeke, who would be in charge of the Lagos Commercial Directorate, comprising Corporate, Commercial and Retail.

The other officers include Ayo Abina, to supervise the South directorate, while Femi Aribaloye would oversee the Risk Management Directorate.

The new appointments take immediate effect.

The Group Managing Director of the Bank, Tokunbo Abiru, thanked the Executive Directors for their services to the bank, saying they contributed immensely to the successful leadership transition of Skye Bank, which commenced last year.
