15 DFCU Bank's senior executives resigned within a month, creating a leadership vacuum that shocked the whole company. Charles M. Mudiwa, the bank's managing director and CEO, was just hired seven months ago, therefore concerns are raised regarding his stability and future direction as a result of his sudden departure.
Unnamed sources claim that Mr. Mudiwa, a native of Zimbabwe, is making an effort to hold onto his position despite a significant exodus of his colleagues.
Mathias Katamba, who departed at the end of the previous year after finding it difficult to lead the bank through the aftermath of acquiring Crane Bank, was replaced by Mudiwa. DFCU has been involved in legal battles since 2017, losing significant lawsuits and having to pay high costs and damages.
The acquisition of Crane Bank still looms large over Mudiwa; the bank lost two significant court cases recently: the London Court case and the High Court decision that DFCU had to vacate Meera Investment properties due to a high Shs2.4 billion trespass penalty.
Proposed restructuring plans, internal friction, and strategic disputes have all been cited as contributing causes to the sudden departure of key executives.
The four main departing executives are Godfrey Mundua, Head of Corporate Banking, Ronald Kasasa, Head of Business Banking, and Joan Ntabadde, Head of Customer Service.
Concerns have been raised by DFCU officials' failure to speak on the matter, and the management is now seen as a representation of unanswered issues.
