President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the reconstitution of the Board of the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria.
This latest development was with a view to repositioning the Federal Mortgage Bank as a core banking institution with core competence in mortgage finance.
This was made known via a statement issued and made available to The Star on Thursday by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu.
Recall that the President had, in January 2022, appointed a Chartered Accountant and financial expert, Mr Ayodeji Ariyo Gbeleyi, as Chairman of the Board.
In the new Board, Hamman Madu representing the North-East zone with a background of over 30 years in the mortgage industry, is the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer.
