ALFRED ABIODUN RECEIVES MOPA AWARD ON BEHALF OF JAMES UKACHUKWU
At the MOPA 2026 awards, BOCA Energy Chairman, Mr James Ukachukwu, was honoured with the Energy Man of the Year Award, recognising his leadership and contributions to the energy sector.
As the chairman was away on an urgent assignment, Mr Alfred Abiodun, Head of Media and Publicity at BOCA Energy Resources Limited, received the award on behalf of the organisation. Abiodun, an active member of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) and Publisher of DASCENARIO and DASCENARIO TV Online, represented the company at the award presentation.
The recognition celebrates Ukachukwu’s leadership within the energy business and provides an opportunity to acknowledge the collective efforts of the BOCA team, whose work supports the company’s operations and strategic objectives.
For BOCA Energy, the honour is also an affirmation of the importance of responsible leadership, innovation, professionalism and sustained commitment to Nigeria’s energy industry.
BOCA ENERGY SUPPORTS 44TH NAPE CONFERENCE
In another major development, BOCA Energy Resources Limited has been unveiled as a sponsor of the 44th Annual International Conference and Exhibition of the Nigerian Association of Petroleum Explorationists (NAPE), scheduled for November 8–12, 2026, at Eko Hotel & Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos.
The conference theme, “Unlocking More Barrels: Driving Reserves Growth through Exploration, Local Capabilities, & Adaptive Technology,” places emphasis on exploration, technological advancement and the development of indigenous expertise within Nigeria’s petroleum industry.
BOCA Energy’s sponsorship reflects the importance the company places on professional engagement and collaboration across the energy value chain.
The annual NAPE gathering brings together industry professionals, geoscientists, engineers, policymakers, investors and other stakeholders to exchange knowledge and examine developments shaping the future of petroleum exploration and production.
Through its participation, BOCA Energy aligns itself with discussions on strengthening local capabilities, improving technical performance and unlocking Nigeria’s hydrocarbon potential.
The company recognises that sustainable progress in the energy sector requires cooperation among service providers, operators, professional associations and other stakeholders committed to innovation and industry development.
BOCA ENERGY CELEBRATES INTERNATIONAL DAY OF THE GIRL CHILD 2026
BOCA Energy Resources Limited also joins the global community in marking the International Day of the Girl Child 2026, observed annually on October 11.
The 2026 global theme is “End child marriage and invest in girls’ rights.” The observance highlights the need to protect girls’ rights, expand opportunities and ensure that every girl can learn, develop her potential and make decisions about her future.
For BOCA Energy, the occasion provides an opportunity to reaffirm the importance of education, safety, inclusion and equal opportunities for girls.
The company recognises that the development of a stronger society requires deliberate investment in the wellbeing and future of young people, including girls who face barriers to education, protection and participation in economic life.
As Nigeria continues to pursue industrial development and broader economic growth, empowering girls and young women remains important to building a more skilled, productive and inclusive society.
The company’s observance of the day complements its broader corporate responsibility outlook, which recognises that business success should be accompanied by awareness of the social issues affecting communities and future generations.
LEADERSHIP, INDUSTRY PARTNERSHIP AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
The three milestones reflect complementary dimensions of BOCA Energy’s corporate direction: recognition of leadership, support for professional and industry development, and attention to social progress.
Ukachukwu’s MOPA 2026 award acknowledges his leadership in the energy sector. The company’s NAPE sponsorship demonstrates engagement with an important professional platform, while its International Day of the Girl Child observance highlights the value of inclusion and the protection of girls’ rights.
Together, these developments reinforce the role of corporate organisations not only as participants in economic activity but also as partners in professional development and wider social advancement.
BOCA Energy Resources Limited remains focused on contributing to Nigeria’s energy industry through its business activities while supporting initiatives that encourage collaboration, innovation and responsible corporate engagement.
