## Resource

BP’s former chairman Albert Manifold is firing back after his surprise ouster after just eight months, calling the move a “false narrative” and accusing the board of acting without explanation. Manifold, who pushed for a return to core oil and gas operations, cost-cutting, and asset sales — aligning with activist investors — had recently brought in Meg ONeill as CEO and shown early signs of progress. Now, with uncertainty swirling and analysts fearing stalled reforms, BP’s board insists it’s on the right track — but the leadership shake-up casts doubt on whether the company can maintain momentum amid mounting pressure.
