Aftermath of unbundling NNPC: Read what Senator Shehu Sani, others have to say
The Minister of State for Petroleum resources, Ibe Kachikwu announced the unbundling of Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) into 7 units.
Speaking in Abuja, on Tuesday, March 8, Kachikwu said five of the seven operational units will be strictly business-focused while two other units will be dedicated to those for Upstream, Downstream, Gas & Power, Refineries, Ventures, Corporate Planning & Services and Finance and Accounts.
Sequel to the split, operations of the NNPC was reportedly shut nationwide.
This comes amidst the recurring fuel scarcity and long queues at petrol stations across the country.
Mixed reactions have been trailing the decision by the federal government to split the NNPC and some have taken to social media to share their opinion.
Ending fuel scarcity is more pressing.
Unbundling NNPC is good if that will will make it more profitable and efficient;However,the most pressing need is to end the fuel queue NOW!

Long overdue.
If NNPC must be unbundled, due process must be followed…I have no problem with the restructuring…It’s long overdue tbh

People supporting what they don’t understand.
As usual, folks will support this NNPC unbundling WITHOUT understanding the underlying issues.
We would all suffer the fuel scarcity.

Unbundling equals to propaganda.
The problem is that is unbundling NNPC doesn’t solve any of the problems you’ve raised. Unbundling = Propaganda https://t.co/H0LAPb6oGU

NNPC should be killed.
Frankly in my view, NNPC doesn’t need to be un-bundled into 7 (or 30) parts. Rather, It needs to be Killed, Buried or preferably Cremated.

Unbundling NNPC solves nothing.
@Osi_Suave unbundling NNPC does nothing to solve its challenges. It doesn’t address how much it can hold or if it can squander its profit

NNPC strike unwarranted.
But we are our own problem in Nigeria. This NNPC strike is uncalled for. How do you go on strike bcos govt creates more units in NNPC
