Nigeria Liquified Natural Gas (NLNG) has appointed Sofia Horsfall as its new general manager of external relations.
Horsfall replaces Andy Odeh who retires after 26 tears at the company.
Her appointment takes effect from November 1, 2024.
At a press conference on Tuesday in Lagos, Horsfall described the new responsibility as a time for introspection to ensure that the relationship, which has been developed with stakeholders over the years, is sustainably maintained.
She thanked Odeh for cultivating a “powerful partnership” between NLNG and the media.
Speaking on the company’s rebranding, Horsfall noted that the move marks more than a visual evolution.
“It is an expression of a commitment to a future where clean, accessible and reliable energy is a reality for all. This is our purpose, and it resonates with the vision you have shared with the public in your reporting, shaping the perception and trust the world has in us,” she said.
She also thanked the media for the role in ensuring that the NLNG story is told.
“Today, as we proudly embrace our new identity, encapsulated by the inspiring banner, ‘Inspiring a Sustainable Future,’ we acknowledge the vital role each of you has played in telling our story over the past 25 years.
“You have been central to sharing our milestones and growth with the world, from our first steps to this transformative point. Now, as we stand united under this reimagined brand, we reaffirm our commitment to advancing innovation, sustainability, and global impact.
“I want to take a moment to thank each of you, our valued media stakeholders, for being here today. Your presence speaks to the strength of the partnership we have built over the years and your dedication to sharing the unfolding story of NLNG with your audiences. Your support, time, and insights are vital to our continued success, and we are truly grateful for the critical role you play in our journey.
“As I step into this role, I look forward to deepening the invaluable collaboration we have built. Together, we have the power to elevate NLNG’s influence and aspirations to new heights, and I am excited to partner with each of you to bring our shared vision to life. Thank you for your warm welcome and steadfast support as we embark on this bold new chapter,” she added.
