The Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) Dr. Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu has announced that speedy implementation of the deregulation policy will promote private investment.

He said this while speaking at the 2015 National Association of Energy Correspondents (NAEC) Conference, with the theme: Energy Crises and Sustainable Development in Nigeria: The Way Forward.

According to him, “Implementation of the policy will entrench efficiency in product usage, product availability and effective competition among investors hence putting an end to product shortage. However, critical enablers such as security of the supply and distribution infrastructure must be assured to guarantee the availability of the petroleum products at affordable prices.”
