BPE to restructure NIPOST
The Bureau of Public Enterprises (BPE) has in Abuja announced that it will restructure Nigeria Postal Service (NIPOST) into new business units in its bid to reform and privatise the enterprise.
The unbundled units which will then be privatised to conclude the reform of the enterprise, will however be preceded by a performance agreement between the enterprise and the ministry of communication as recommended by the NETHPOST Consultancy BU of Netherlands which conducted the feasibility analysis on the restructuring of the NIPOST.
Chigbo Anichebe, head, public communications, BPE, yesterday gave Friday as the deadline for the submission of Expressions of Interest (EoIs) for advisors to assist the bureau in the reform and restructuring of the postal sector and the NIPOST.
He said the proposed postal reform would involve, in the first instance, the development of a postal sector strategy/policy accompanied by an institutional, legal and regulatory framework for the sector.
