CBN sacks 7 directors, more 12 to go

Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) is set to sack 19 of its directors within the month in a major organisational shakeup. Already, seven of the directors have been fired last Friday.
While two of the terminated directors have accepted their fate, the other five are planning to take legal action against the bank for what they consider to be an unlawful termination of their appointments.
The Business Intelligence Africa (TBI Africa) magazine learnt that the two directors who accepted their termination quietly are also facing a case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) due to their implication in the Obaze report.
The termination letters sent to the seven directors only noted “Reorganizational and human capital restructuring” as the reason for their dismissal, in line with the bank’s new strategic direction.
