Panic as CBN set to fire more directors

About 12 more directors of the Central Bank of Nigeria are said to have been listed for sacking in a reorganization move by the Governor of the apex bank, Olayemi Cardoso.
This is coming after seven directors were fired last Friday.
Two of the seven terminated directors are currently facing a case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) due to their implication in the Jim Obaze report.
Obaze was appointed as Special Investigator by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to scrutinise the activities of the CBN under the watch of its former Governor Godwin Emefiele.
While the two directors are said to have accepted their fate, the other five are planning to take a legal action against the bank for alleged unlawful termination of their appointments.
The termination letters sent to the seven directors cited “reorganizational and human capital restructuring” as reasons for their dismissal.
The letters stated that they were relieved of their jobs with effect from Friday March 15, 2024.
They were directed to hand over all bank properties in their care to their department’s administrator immediately.
The Nation reported that 12 more directors are set to be dismissed.
