Unilever Africa Replaces Four Directors Who Resigned Recently

Four board members in Unilever’s East & West Africa unit resigned within a month of each other this fall and were replaced almost immediately. Moses B. Amao (customer development director), Joseph Nee-Amahtey Hyde, Franklyn Manu, and Charles Alexander Cofie all resigned effective in October and November. Unilever did not specify the reason for the resignations in a letter to shareholders. The four were replaced by Edward Effah (Fidelity Group), Edith Dankwa (Business Times Africa Magazine), Philip Sowah (Afriwave Telecom Ghana) and Joseph Z. Amuna, supply chain director, Unilever Ghana.
