The Central Bank governor on Monday called for the sack of 50% of civil
servants in Nigeria.
“You have to fire half of the civil service because
the revenue of the government is supposed to be for 167 million
Nigerians. Any society where government spends 70 per cent of its
revenue on its civil service has a problem. It is unsustainable,” he
said.
Organized Labour, including the Nigeria Labour Congress, Trade Union Congress, Association of Senior Civil Servants of
Nigeria, the Civil Liberties Organisation and Radio, Television, Theatre
and Arts Workers Union, have all condemned his statement, some are asking for his immediate sack.
