On the same day, Energia will also lend its voice to thought leadership alongside Olaniwun Ajayi LP, in partnership with Africa Legal, at the Leadership Forum, themed “Beyond Divestments: Unleashing Indigenous Capacity to Power Nigeria’s Upstream Growth,” highlighting the critical role of indigenous companies in reshaping Nigeria’s upstream landscape amid ongoing industry divestments.
Speaking ahead of the event, Oladimeji Bashorun, COO of Energia Limited, said, “Africa’s upstream growth story is inseparable from the resilience and ingenuity of indigenous players. For over two decades, Energia has exemplified this through steady, ingenious operations that continue to expand opportunities in Nigeria’s oil and gas landscape.
We believe that beyond divestments lies a greater chance to unleash homegrown capacity, deepen local participation, and drive sustainable development that benefits both investors and host communities, Bashorun said.
