Africa Bitcoin CEO Warren Wheatley resigns as both CEO and an employee of Africa Bitcoin Corporation, according to multiple reports. The resignation takes place about three weeks after the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) debarred him.
Following Wheatley’s departure, the company says Stafford Masie remains interim CEO. The board is conducting a process to find a permanent successor. The sources do not describe any dispute about the company’s decision, nor do they provide additional details beyond the timing of the resignation and the FSCA action.
Overall coverage focuses on the same sequence of events: the FSCA debarment, Wheatley’s resignation from his roles, and Masie’s appointment as interim CEO while the board searches for a longer-term appointment.
