There can be no dispute that Dr. Clarke, of Geo ExPro, is a point of light, on resource matters, and the mere fact that his heritage is African, a continent that is often regarded as lagging and dark, makes his story of life an interesting case study of what is possible in life.
Banking on Africa’s Future (BOAF), an initiative of the 1873 Network in collaboration with Africa Heritage Society (AHS), is dedicated to identifying, profiling, showcasing those among us who stand out as shining stars on what kind of brand Africa should have in a globally competitive world of possibilities and opportunities.
After you read the article below, you will agree that Africa needs more visible ambassadors like Dr. Clarke in its journey to deliver promises to its 1.4 billion inhabitants.
Dr. Clarke is quoted in the article as follows: “People and many in the media also talk too glibly about the ‘resource curse”.
Resources are per se not any inherent curse – it’s above ground where the basic problem lies.
Companies moving into Africa now may have better regulations and laws than their predecessors, helping to avoid some of these difficulties, but they must still have the stability to be successful.
All countries have issues to be addressed, and even once-stable places, like Libya or Sudan, can easily or suddenly fall apart.
The perils of history often return.”
