Nuru is said to have fathered two children with a married female staff, and had left for leave while the investigation into the allegation is on by the board.
The social media was awash recently following alleged extra-marital affairs involving Nuru, and a former employee known as Moyo Thomas, part of which allegedly led to the death of the latter’s husband, Tunde Thomas.
The FCMB Group Head of Corporate Affairs, Diran Olojo, in an initial response informed stakeholders and the general public that it is currently conducting a review of what transpired, to ascertain if there are violations of code of ethics or mere allegations.
The Management in an earlier statement on Tuesday said, Nuru’s leave was voluntary. “This will guarantee the sanctity of the review process.”
