Her interest in the emerging energy market in Africa was peaked because of the realization of what this could mean to the African people, its economy, health and life expectancy etc. The potential is unimaginable, and as a Sierra Leonean, I am passionate about being a part of not just my country’s development, but the development of the energy industry in the region as a whole. It is an exciting prospect, and a fresh opportunity for women to get involved in the industry. The biggest challenge to the established industry players now is to support a real change in the African energy industry to involve women in strategic roles.
She is excited to be a part of AWIE because this vision to rewrite the script in the energy industry is at its heart.
