The head of the African Energy Chamber, N.J. Ayuk, told Al-Masry Al-Youm in an exclusive interview that Africa relies on Egypt as a dependable source of natural gas, which will revolutionize the continent. Natural gas for Africa is considered a revolution of independence so that Africa becomes stronger. So there is a need to preserve our resources of natural gas and work to discover them, such that during a period that Europe will say that it does not want African natural gas, we must unite to control and create a parallel African market. Q: Do you have a vision of forming a union of African countries for natural gas, similar to the “OPEC” petroleum organization? A: This is what we certainly seek so that African countries have a say in the field.
