Joshua Oigara has been appointed CEO of Stanbic Bank Kenya and South Sudan effective December 1, 2022.

Oigara will report directly to Patrick Mweheire, Regional CEO of Standard Bank East Africa. This comes after the anticipated retirement of the current MD, Charles Mudiwa, effective December 31, 2022.

Mudiwa intends to retire after a lengthy and distinguished career at the bank spanning more than two decades. Mudiwa worked in several capacities with Stanbic Bank Group, Africa’s largest bank by assets, until his retirement.

His previous positions include Executive Director and Chief Executive in Zimbabwe, South Africa, Zambia, and Malawi.
