This has persisted over suspicion that they might have benefitted from the management of Emefiele.
The Central Bank of Nigeria has sacked about 117 staff cutting across 29 departments, members of the apex bank said.
They said that the layoff had been going on since the appointment of Dr Olayemi Cardoso as the Governor.
The CBN workers revealed that no department can be spared in the continued sacking ravaging the apex bank.
The country’s apex bank staff said this in reaction to the disengagement of another 50 of their colleagues on Monday.
One of the staff said, “We have seen indiscriminate sacking in procurement, development finance and the medical services department. What it means is that other departments will follow soon.
" I am worried that they will come for all those who worked closely with the sacked directors. The apprehension is not good for productivity and it is also bad for the system," he said.
Another senior staff member said: “A lot of people who received their sack letter just kept quiet and left their various offices. They feel helpless by the way the system is structured.”
The CBN under Cardoso has witnessed many changes in policies and personnel directly away from what his embattled predecessor, Godwin Emefiele, had.
Even the vendors have been grumbling as some who completed their contract with the CBN last June have their payment kept perpetually in view by the new management.
This has persisted over suspicion that they might have benefitted from the management of Emefiele.
