Misperceptions about Africa's risk profile hinder energy financing:  eSwatini Minister

Date: Jun 19, 2025

eSwatini’s Minister of Natural Resources and Energy, Prince Lonkhokhela Dlamini, says a skewed risk perception is hindering development financing for energy construction projects in African countries.

Speaking during the Africa Energy Forum in Cape Town, Western Cape province,  Dlamini stressed the importance of improving access to finance and land for energy development.
“One thing that is important is  finance availability. We are seen as risky, especially us as African countries, developing countries. Yet, when you go to the ground, you do see that it is not as perceived by those who say Africa is risky,” he said.
