The Executive Chairman of Africa Prosperity Network, Gabby Otchere-Darko has encouraged Ghanaians to embrace the Africa Oil Week initiative (AOW), which aims to boost the country’s oil and gas sector.
Speaking at the launch event in Accra, he expressed that this program aligns with the government’s ongoing efforts to develop business tourism in the oil and gas industry, enhancing both the sector and the broader economy.
“The importance of the Africa Oil Week (AOW) coming to Ghana must not be lost on us. It must not be lost on us because it is inline with what Ghana is seeking to do which is boost the business tourism aspect of the economy” he noted.
Mr. Otchere-Darko highlighted that hosting the Africa Oil Week in Ghana presents a valuable opportunity to position the country and the continent as key players in the global energy landscape.
He emphasized that this initiative should not be taken lightly, as it offers a platform to showcase Africa’s potential on the world stage and attract international investment to Ghana’s oil and gas industry.
“And for me, it is not just about Ghana, it is about West Africa. We should promote it as promoting West Africa’s role in the Hydro-carbon sector” he said.
