Others on the shortlist include: Mrs Grace Ihonvbere, S.l. Ameh (SAN), Hamid Abbo, Admiral Victor Adedipe, (retd), Chief Patrick Chidolue and Mr Ikokwu.
The appointment was the government’s response to call for inclusivity and to replace some deceased members of the board, notably, Gen John Shagaya, Gen Domkat Bali, Sir Lucky Omoluwa and Prince Oluseyi Lufadeji.
The club was recently entangled in turmoil following a futile attempt by some members, led by JK. Gadzama and Dr Olabanjo Obaleye at Extraordinary Annual General Meeting to remove the BoT led by Gen IBM Haruna, prompting DSS to take over the club to prevent a break down of law and order.
The new appointees would be inaugurated as BoT members beford the week ends by the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike.
Upon inauguration, they would join Gen Haruna, King Alfred Diete- Spiff, Dr Tim Menakaya, Ambassador Babagana Kingibe and Chief Philip Asiodu to swell the membership of the BoT to 12.
Ihonvbere, a former Captain of the Lady Section, will become the first ever woman to be incorporated into the Board of Trustees of IBB Club since the club was founded in 1991.
Runsewe, on his part, is the current President of Nigeria Golf Federation and a former Director General of the Nigeria Tourism Development Corporation (NTDC) and National Council of Arts and Culture (NCAC).
Abboy and Ameh were also former captains of IBB Club.
