I come from a generation of highly skilled Africans with big achievable ideas about the future of the continent. Although governments have played very vital and commendable roles in the development of innovations, I believe that the kind of development we desire can best be stimulated by the private sector as it often exhibits agility in leading innovations geared towards record-breaking developments.We African energy entrepreneurs, who are the lifelines of our growing economies, all have a key role to play.My life’s purpose is to hone the skills I have gained in project management, technology, banking, and finance to lead and grow an indigenous African Energy company.As an advocate for Sustainable Development Goals, my current role in the petroleum industry, enables me to build a sustainable future with the introduction of electric mobility; to clean, renewable energy and poverty reduction. This bridges the gap between energy, transportation, and economics. The end goal is to sustain a leading position among global energy companies through the creation of new channels of consumption, diversifying our markets and improving our operation model. This will only be achieved if we harness all scientific and technical potential present in the energy space.
