A fresh batch of 40 staff has been reportedly sacked by the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Yemi Cardoso.

The affected staff OSUN DEFENDER gathered were mostly from the Development Finance Department (DFD).

According to a Daily Trust report, deputy directors and assistant directors were mostly affected, with 22 from the DFD and the remaining 18 from the Medicals and Procurement Services Department.

Eight directors, 10 deputy directors, five assistant directors, two principal managers, and two senior managers were among those affected.

With the latest number of affected staff, the total has now reached 67, in what appears to be a series by the Olayemi Cardoso-led Board of Governors.

Not less than 27 members of staff, most of them directors at the Central Bank of Nigeria, were affected by the first batch of dismissals.
