I agree with the points made-and with Ayuk's case for the critical role that OPEC will play in helping African oil producers achieve a much-deserved voice in the petroleum industry. Yes, one could argue that Ayuk is a dreamer. However, he has taken the time to develop a detailed roadmap for realizing that dream. It's up to each of us to take the time to read it and to play a part in making his dream of petroleum-fueled economic growth, stability, and improved quality of life happen for Africa. -Mohammad Sanusi Barkindo, OPEC Secretary General ''In the chapter entitled Abundant, Accessible, Affordable: The Golden Age of Natural Gas Shines in Africa, Ayuk correctly identifies the benefits of natural gas, especially as the world looks for ways to lower CO2 emissions.'' -Jeff Goodrich, former CEO of OneLNG ''The answer to Africa's utility woes can be found in Ayuk's book. For example, not everyone is willing to assert that Africa will never achieve its full potential if it cannot power its industries, services, or households. Ayuk's chapter isn't all doom and gloom [however] Ayuk calls it like it is.'' -Dr Thabo Kgogo, former CEO of Efora Energy Limited NJ Ayuk is right to call upon African governments to do their share in making Africa appealing to American exploration and production companies. I hope American companies will see that Africa still has a lot to offer in terms of economic returns. -H. Daniel Hogan, CEO and General Manager of Lukoil International Upstream West ''Ayuk sees the irony in oil and gas produced in Africa being sent away to be refined, then returned as finished products that Africans pay a premium for. Africa is exporting raw materials it could be refining and processing, if it only had the capabilities, but not everyone is willing to admit that with the level of candor Ayuk does.'' -Bruce Falkenstein, Joint Operations Manager, License Management & Compliance for LUKOIL NJ Ayuk is a champion of African commerce, and that's clear in his new book. In the chapter, Calling all Leaders! More on Good Governance, he presents an unvarnished view of corruption's negative effect on Africa's business environment. His message is something anyone who is doing business there, or wants to, should hear.'' -Sergio Pugliese, President for Angola African Energy Chamber ''Ayuk sees opportunity all around him, and he realizes that appropriate development will solve many of the continent's challenges, including power generation.'' -Ann Norman, Pioneer Energy's General Manager for Sub-Saharan Africa Ayuk goes beyond acknowledging this cycle of mismanagement and corruption. He also gives us ideas for breaking it. I can see how some of his ideas for oil money revenue will be considered controversial, but I hope, at least, that they trigger productive dialogue. We can't continue as we are. -Akere Muna, former Vice Chairman of Transparency International "“It is an honor to provide the foreword for this book.
