The deregulation process would rather strengthen the NNPC as a regulator of the industry and encourage more private investment in refining, as envisioned in the PIB. It is true that business will not be as usual especially with PPPRA and subsidy disbursements, but I think things will return to normalcy after this political impasse is amicably resolved. Afteral, AGO has long been deregulated and NNPC did not fall apart.
This is time for us to thread our words with caution. Remain blessed!
