Warren Buffett, mwenye umri wa miaka 96, alijiuzulu uenyekiti wa Berkshire Hathaway tarehe 18 Septemba 2026, hatua iliyomaliza miongo kadhaa ya uongozi wake katika kampuni kubwa aliyoijenga kuwa miongoni mwa makampuni yenye thamani kubwa zaidi duniani. Buffett atabaki kwenye bodi ya wakurugenzi ya Berkshire kama mwenyekiti mstaafu wa heshima, akiendelea kutoa ushauri bila kushikilia wadhifa wowote wa utendaji.

Mwanawe Howard Buffett, ambaye amekuwa mjumbe wa bodi ya Berkshire tangu 1993, ameteuliwa kuwa mwenyekiti mpya wa kampuni hiyo. Hatua hii inakamilisha mchakato wa mabadiliko ya uongozi uliozinduliwa mwishoni mwa mwaka jana, wakati Buffett alipomaliza muda wake kama afisa mkuu mtendaji na kukabidhi udhibiti wa uendeshaji wa kila siku kwa Greg Abel.

Buffett alitaja umri wake unaosonga mbele kama sababu ya uamuzi huo na kusema Abel amezidi matarajio yake akiwa afisa mkuu mtendaji. Mabadiliko haya yanaashiria mwisho wa enzi kwa Berkshire Hathaway, kampuni ambayo Buffett aliibadilisha kutoka kiwanda cha nguo kilichokuwa kinasumbuka hadi kuwa kampuni tanzu yenye shughuli mbalimbali za bima, reli, nishati na hisa kubwa katika baadhi ya makampuni makubwa zaidi nchini Marekani.
