    We are pleased to announce a significant leadership transition. After more than two decades of exceptional leadership, Bolaji Osunsanya, our pioneering CEO, is retiring, and we are thrilled to welcome Ogbemi Ofuya as our new Group Chief Executive Officer. Bolaji Osunsanya has been a driving force behind Axxela’s transformation. Over the past 20 years, he has led the company through remarkable growth, establishing Axxela as a leader in the natural gas and energy sectors. His vision and leadership have not only shaped the Axxela but have also played a pivotal role in industrialising sectors across the region. Under Bolaji’s stewardship, Axxela expanded into new regional markets, supported the growth of numerous industries, and positioned itself as a critical player in the energy infrastructure landscape. His legacy is one of innovation, dedication, and strong commitment to the company’s mission. As Bolaji transitions into retirement, we are delighted to announce that Ogbemi Ofuya is stepping into the role of Group Chief Executive Officer (GCEO). As a Partner at Helios Investment Partners and a non-executive director at Axxela, Ogbemi brings nearly two decades of experience in the oil and gas, energy infrastructure, and power sectors. With a proven track record in driving growth through strategic investments and M&A across African markets, Ogbemi is uniquely positioned to lead Axxela through the next chapter of innovation and growth. Ogbemi’s leadership journey spans renowned global organisations such as ExxonMobil and Standard Chartered, where he held senior project management and strategy roles. His deep understanding of Axxela’s business, combined with his expertise in the energy sector, will be instrumental in advancing our mission to provide integrated energy solutions and continue our growth in regional markets. Bolaji will work closely with Ogbemi until December 2024 to ensure a smooth leadership transition, supporting the ongoing reorganisation of the business. After this period, he will transition to serve as a Non-Executive Director on Axxela’s Board, where his wealth of knowledge and experience will continue to guide and support the company’s strategic direction. Axxela remains committed to its vision of delivering innovative energy solutions and remains confident that, under Ogbemi’s leadership, the company will continue to grow, innovate, and lead in the energy sector across sub-Saharan Africa. With a standing ovation, we extend our deepest gratitude to Bolaji Osunsanya for his exceptional leadership and wish him all the best in his retirement. We also look forward to the exciting opportunities ahead under Ogbemi’s leadership as we continue to build on the strong foundation Bolaji has established. #LeadershipTransition #ChangeManagement #Axxela
