He also assured Ghanaians and the international community of Ghana’s readiness to deliver an unparalleled experience.
“We are thrilled that AOW will be moving to Accra starting from September 15 next year. Ghana is ready and Accra is ready to host this important event. This vital narrative will be shifting to Accra to ensure that the conversation about accelerating our exploration and exploration is intensified” he noted.
The CEO of Sankofa Events and owner of Africa Oil Week, Paul Sinclair, explained the significance of relocating the event from South Africa to Ghana. He also commended the government and other partners for their support.
