The Africa Center for Energy Policy (ACEP) will embark on a project under which all recommendations for addressing the governance challenges facing Africa’s oil sector will be laid out in a document for adoption by political parties in all African countries. The document has been dubbed the Africa Oil Manifesto Project.
The project, which will start in Ghana next year, is aimed at ensuring the recommendations by stakeholders and civil society organizations on oil governance are not ignored by governments.
The Executive Director of ACEP, Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam, at a news conference in Accra explained that under the project, ACEP would engage political parties to ensure that the recommendations were mainstreamed into their manifestoes for implementation.
He said measures to ensure that important recommendations on the efficient management and utilization of oil revenues would include regular stock-taking meetings and the publication of annual reports on the annual Africa Oil Governance Conferences, the maiden edition of which took place in Accra, last month.
He added that a 2017 report would assess the implementation rate and level of recommendations in all previous oil governance meetings.
