BN@10: SA's imminent oil and gas boom - Lorimer shares latest facts on nation's untapped treasure

The most astonishing part about this hugely bullish keynote to the BizNews@10 event, is that it was delivered by a politician who has no inventive to talk up the country's immediate economic potential. James Lorimer is the official opposition's shadow minister of Mineral Resources, and hot favourite to land the portfolio's cabinet position should the Multiparty Charter for SA prevail in the 2024 national election. Yet here he is, telling the BizNews tribe that a massive oil and gas resource is about to be unlocked, catapulting the country's economic prospects. I guess his journalistic background kicked in - news as good as this simply cannot be kept under wraps. - Alec Hogg   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
