FORMER Derry GAA star Anthony Tohill is to leave his post as chief executive of Mid Ulster District Council.
The 1993 All-Ireland winner said he will be taking up a new role in the private sector after six years with the council.
“After 25 years in the public sector it is time for me to follow a different career path and I will be taking up an opportunity in the private sector when my notice period has been served," he said.
“It has been a great privilege to work with the officers and the elected members in serving the people of the Mid Ulster district and I wish the council every success in the times ahead."
Council chairman Cathal Mallaghan said: “While Anthony is undoubtedly a loss to Mid Ulster council, we wish him nothing but success in his new role.”
