Aliko Dangote Regains Stock Exchange Presidency

| June 24, 2012

Alhaji Aliko Dangote regains the President of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) post following a court ruling.

Dangote was elected the seventeenth president of the NSE in August 2009. Announcing  Dangote’s election, the then Director-General of the NSE, Prof. Ndi Okereke-Onyiuke, had said he was elected on a unanimous acclamation by the council members.

However, Dangote’s election was nullified by the Federal High Court in Lagos in March 2010 following the appliance created to the court by some shareholders of African Petroleum Plc (now Forte Oil Plc), who had sued  him, Nova Finance and Securities Ltd over alleged manipulation of AP shares.
