Ghosn says calls for his Nissan return show investor anger over results

Carlos Ghosn said shareholder calls for his return reflect deep anger over years of failed turnaround efforts at Nissan since his 2018 ouster. He accused the automaker's current leadership of squandering value and losing direction, underscoring ongoing governance and strategy concerns.
