EKO HOT BLOG reports that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has denied knowledge of the sack of its Governor, Godwin Emefiele.

The Nation quoted the apex bank’s spokesman Osita Nwanisobi said he read report of his purported sack in some media like everyone else.

He said: “I also heard the same way you heard it. Honestly, to me I’m not aware of that development”.

Other CBN staff also claimed they are not aware of Emefiele’s sack as widely reported.

However a bank staff confirmed to The Nation: “The Governor left to attend the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland immediately after the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) briefing”.

Social media platforms were saturated with the purported sack of Emefiele as CBN Governor on Wednesday morning.
