Monrovia — Stanton Witherspoon, the Chief Executive Officer of Spoon Network, has announced that he is stepping down from his position pending a court process.
On January 25, 2023, Stanton Witherspoon and 24 others were charged with wire fraud and allegedly giving out fake nursing licenses amounting to over $114 million.
Since this allegation, things have never been the same for the former CEO. The US government has allegedly seized his homes, four of his panelist resigned, and much bad news in the corridor about him.
These allegations and all the news in the public space have prompted Mr. Witherspoon to relinquish his post temporarily.
“After a series of consultations with my wife and the board of directors of the Spoon Network, I have decided to step down as CEO of Spoon Network to ensure its balance and credibility,” said Witherspoon.

“It will only be fair if I can step away to go through the legal proceeding. By God’s willing, I will be back after my court process has been completed.”
Following Witherspoon’s departure, the company has appointed Tetee C. Karneh, former General Manager of Spoon Network, as the new CEO.
“Today, I’m here to introduce madam Tetee Karneh, General Manager, as the new CEO of the Spoon Network. We believed in her work, and we believed in all that she does. She has been an integral part of Spoon Network’s success, and we are confident that she will do an excellent job as CEO,” said Stanton Witherspoon.
Commenting toward his ex-panelists, Witherspoon said he doesn’t want to delve into what led to their exit, but he can only wish them well wherever they go.
“I will not speak about those that have left us. I wish them well. I respect their views and opinions. I will never speak evil of them,” Stanton said.
Witherspoon’s departure and Karneh’s appointment mark a significant leadership change for Spoon Network, and the company will be closely watched to see how it adapts to the new situation.
