A friend of mine is building a business, and she has been at it long enough to know it works. The product is there, the customers are there, and the next step is clear: go out and raise the investment to scale it. But every time we speak, she finds another reason why she is not quite ready yet. She needs to understand the numbers better and be more polished in her presentation. She needs to know more before she can sit in those rooms. I understand that feeling. A lot of my career has required me to walk into rooms where I did not have the most obvious background. After years in research and technology, I moved back to Nigeria and found myself in infrastructure finance. I did not have a finance background in the traditional sense, but the work was in front of me, so I learned what I needed to learn and did the work. That pattern has repeated itself many times throughout my journey - business optimisation, communications, corporate services, and now upstream leadership. Research teaches you that ignorance is a starting point. You begin with very little, you read, ask questions, test your assumptions, and stay with the problem long enough to become useful. Sometimes that means teaching yourself. Sometimes it means finding the people who already know and being humble enough to learn from them. Over time, you stop being embarrassed by what you do not know and become more interested in what it will take to close the gap. The rooms will teach you what you need to know. You close the gap by being in the conversation, not by waiting outside it until you feel worthy of the invite.

In a conversation with The Energy Year, Dr. Ainojie Alex Irune, Managing Director, OERNL, explains how assuming operatorship has shifted both accountability and execution. With over a billion barrels still in the subsurface, he emphasises the importance of extracting resources efficiently and at the right cost. The piece offers insight into how indigenous leadership is changing expectations across Nigeria’s energy sector. Read the full article here: theenergyyear.com/articles/d… #oandospeaks #theeraofus

a daily reminder: “…I think a lot of people are struggling to find that purpose but it’s okay. You will find it. Do not give up. Keep getting up. Just keep saying those things to yourself and you will eventually find it.” ❤️‍🩹

After a successful acquisition of NAOC in 2024, 2025 was the year to deepen our integration and transition to impact. This Oando film follows our integration journey and the work done throughout 2025 to harmonize our culture, engage our host communities and ramp up production across our assets.

The past 12 months have asked more of me than any other period I can remember, particularly in how energy is deployed and sustainability is tested. Here's what the year reinforced:

Intentionality is a discipline that shows up in everyday decisions.

I’m ending 2025 with gratitude. For the people who showed up, the lessons learned, and the discipline this year required. I hope 2026 brings each of us the ability to be intentional with time, energy, and the things that matter most.
