@Adewuyifm @bosuntijani@officialABAT Have you thought about this carefully ? Do we have banks in all the local government areas in Nigeria ? That's what will happen to NIPOST in private hands. Exclusion of rural communities because they won't be viable and attractive to private investors.
@bosuntijani@eGovFoundation That is where the spread of NIPOST comes in handy. Leveraging on the spread of post offices, it can be made a one stop shop for all govt services. The advantages are ease of doing business, financial, social and digital inclusion of rural areas most especially.
@Enoughjeanss The private sector is profit oriented, NIPOST in private hands, will end up like the banks. Only viable locations will have their presence thereby excluding rural areas and some cities that are not viable. NIPOST shld be a tool for social and financial inclusion for the govt.
@Kjheto@akintollgate@OfficialAPCNg How well have the previously privatised government entities fare ? Re they doing better than when they were under government control ?
@proxyvibes To attempt answering the question, it is important to note that this budget is/was to be funded by the revenue the organization generates and not to be funded from government coffers. Backlog of debt, decayed infrastructure n archaic equip hv made sure de don't generate.
@ErnestOfoma@StatiSense Stop spewing what you have not done a thorough check about. NIPOST has said it severally that for over 10 years, government has not given the organization a dime apart from the salary it pays workers.
@GbasGbos6 @me_uko USPS is fully government owned while certain parts of Royal Mail were privatized but obviously it's not working as they thought it would.
@balogunfd @me_uko That's what are experts recommended and government sold almost all its businesses. Almost all the sold companies are not working now. They contributed to the high rate of employment we now have.
