Richard Nii Armah Quaye Retires as CEO and Chairman of Quick Angels and Bills Micro Credit to Focus on National Development
Ghanaian entrepreneur and business magnate, Richard Nii Armah Quaye, has officially announced his retirement as CEO and Board Chairman of Quick Angels and Bills Micro Credit. This strategic move signals a new chapter in his career, one dedicated to fostering national economic development.
The announcement was made during the RNAQ Holdings Press Conference held at the Alisa Hotel in Accra on Monday, April 28, 2025. Although notable, the decision was not entirely unexpected, as Quaye had earlier hinted at stepping back from active business leadership ahead of his widely celebrated 40th birthday.
Speaking at the event, Richard Nii Armah Quaye outlined the motivations behind his retirement. He emphasized his unwavering commitment to empowering the youth and driving economic advancement across Ghana.
“As I retire from my roles as CEO and Board Chairman of all my businesses in Ghana and abroad, my mission is to devote my time and resources to connecting young talents with financial backing, skills, and early-stage ventures. Together, we can fuel an economic revolution that will uplift our nation,” Quaye stated.
“I have no political ambitions; my sole aspiration is to see Ghana thrive economically,” he added.
Quaye extended his gratitude to all partners, staff, and stakeholders who contributed to the growth and success of his ventures over the years. He also issued a heartfelt call to the Ghanaian youth, urging them to work hard, tap into their potential, and embrace entrepreneurship with resilience and determination.
In line with the succession plan, Lawyer Dei Kwarteng has been appointed as the new Chairman of Bills Micro Credit, while Emmanuel N. L. Lamptey will assume the role of CEO at Quick Angels.
Both leaders expressed profound appreciation to Richard Nii Armah Quaye for his visionary leadership and mentorship. They pledged to continue building on the solid foundation he established, ensuring the continued growth and success of both organizations.
