According to him, the Minister of Power while making the announcement, said that Eweluka is to succeed Mrs Marilyn Amobi, as the substantive MD and Chief Executive Officer.
Artimas said the former managing director is to handover and proceed on terminal leave with immediate effect.
He said that before the appointment of Eweluka as the Managing Director, he was the company’s General Counsel and Secretary. Artimas said that President Muhammadu Buhari had earlier approved the recommendation to this effect.
“Eweluka, a lawyer, came to this position with over 20 years’ experience, spanning private practice, academics, and the Power sector.
“He is a specialist on privatisation and legal energy reforms as well as a member of the Chartered Institute of Arbitration,” he said.
