Directors may only hold office for a maximum of two terms totaling five years, according these laws.

It might not have been the best decision to implement modifications at that time.

"Now is the appropriate moment for us to assess our destination," he said. "We have to choose between staying on our current course and pursuing something different."


He emphasized that the goal of the shake-up was to guarantee adherence to legal and regulatory requirements, boosting investor trust and fostering the expansion of the business. Dokpesi Jr. clarified, "In order to inspire public confidence in our organization and its administration, we need to uphold existing laws and regulations."


Dokpesi Therefore, Jnr guaranteed that the adjustments would present chances for both current employees and outside applicants.
