Borno State-born veteran politician, Ambassador Baba Gana Kingibe, has been appointed as Chairman of Regency Alliance Insurance Plc.
A statement issued yesterday by the firm said the appointment of the 72-year-old “is with immediate effect.”
Before his latest appointment, Mr Kingibe was the Acting Chairman of the board of directors of the insurance company.
The decision to appoint Mr Kingibe as Chairman was taken at the “meeting of the board of directors, which was held on Thursday, July 27, 2017.”
Mr Kingibe was the Vice-Presidential running mate of late MKO Abiola under the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in the 1993 presidential election, who was largely won by the pair, but was annulled by the then Military President, General Ibrahim Babangida.
