Youth Engagement Across Oil & Gas Sectors Could Uplift Africa's Economies: Youth Petroleum Association Chairman
The number of young professionals in these industries must increase, as youth are now playing a crucial role in decision-making, Jaffar Hamza, founder and chairman of the Young Africans Petroleum Association, told Sputnik Africa.
Moreover, raising awareness about opportunities in the sector can help young people understand how to leverage the continent's natural resources for the benefit of African nations, according to the speaker.
"This sector can make a very significant contribution, considering the resources that we possess, because in one way or another they contribute a very large share to the economies of our countries," he noted.
