Mantashe: Africa has resources to sustain itself & provide for the rest of the world
CAPE TOWN - Africa has the natural resources, like gas and oil, to sustain itself and can also provide it to the rest of the world.That’s the view of Mineral Resources and Energy Minister Gwede Mantashe, who addressed the Africa Oil Week conference in Cape Town on Tuesday.
Minister Mantashe addressed the more than 1,000 delegates from over 80 countries about oil and gas being an enabler for better coordination in the continent. "You know Africa can feed itself and feed other continents and we are not. I’m submitting that it’s a leadership question. It’s not anything else, it’s a leadership question," Mantashe said.
