Dos Santos in March appointed little-known Valter Filipe da Silva as Angola's new central bank governor after José Pedro de Morais resigned.
His
office said Gualberto Manuel Amaro Lima Campos and Cristina Florencia
Dias Van-Dúnem had been dismissed and replaced by António Manuel Tiago
Dias and Suzana Maria de Fátima Monteiro Camacho.
The
economy of Angola, Africa's second-largest oil exporter after Nigeria,
has been hammered by the oil price fall, and the government is in talks
with the World Bank and International Monetary Fund about possible
financial assistance.
Three directors of the bank's board were also dismissed and replaced.
