Delta Corporation has announced the appointment of lawyer Sternford Moyo as new chairman of the Board.
Moyo replaces Canaan Dube who retired from the Board on 31 July 2021. Dube had been chairman since August 2010.
Moyo is a leading lawyer who specialises in mining, corporate and commercial law and is active in local, regional and international lawyers’ associations, which he had occasion to chair.
He is currently a director of PPC Zimbabwe, Padenga Holdings and Alpha Media and chairs
the Schweppes Zimbabwe board.
Moyo is also the chairman and Senior Partner of law firm Scanlen and Holderness, and has recently assumed the position of President of the International Bar Association (IBA), the first IBA President of African descent in the history of the 74-year-old organisation.
In March this year, Delta appointed Matlhogonolo Valela as chief executive officer to replace Pearson Gowero, who retired from the role.
Valela took up the new role on July 1, 2021.
Before that Valela was group finance director since July 2011 and has since been replaced in that role by Alex Makamure.
Makamure was previously Delta’s company secretary and group treasurer with functional responsibility for corporate affairs and supply chain.
