BOST Energies Leadership Pays Homage to Ga Mantse as Transformation Gains National Spotlight

Accra, Ghana | October 10, 2025 — The leadership of BOST Energies, led by Managing Director Afetsi Awoonor and Deputy Managing Director Adjoa Serwaa Bondzie, has paid a courtesy visit to His Royal Majesty Nii Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, the Ga Mantse and President of the Ga Traditional Council. The visit, which brought together senior executives and general managers of the company, reflected a renewed corporate culture rooted in respect, collaboration, and community engagement under BOST’s evolving identity.

For the company—formerly known as the Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation Company—this engagement was more than ceremonial. It represented a deepening of its transformation journey following its August rebrand to BOST Energies, a shift designed to align with Ghana’s energy transition and the government’s profitability mandate for state-owned enterprises.

During the meeting at the Ga Mantse’s residence, Deputy Managing Director Adjoa Serwaa Bondzie underscored the importance of honoring traditional leadership, noting that “BOST Energies operates on Ga land, and it is essential that we honor the traditions and leadership of the Ga State. This visit is a step toward building a strong partnership with the Ga Mantse Palace to foster development.”

Managing Director Afetsi Awoonor reiterated the company’s commitment to education and youth empowerment within the Ga State and sought the Ga Mantse’s blessings to guide BOST Energies’ mission as it transitions toward a more sustainable operational model. His Royal Majesty Nii Tackie Teiko Tsuru II welcomed the gesture, calling for a strategic partnership between the Palace and BOST Energies to promote development, especially for young people across the Ga communities. The visit concluded with a blessing from the Chief Priest of the Ga State, who commended the company’s leadership for its outreach and prayed for continued success.

The courtesy call comes at a time when BOST Energies’ transformation is drawing national attention. In September, the company received two major awards at the 2025 National Business Honours, a recognition that validated its governance renewal and operational efficiency efforts. These milestones build on the momentum from the company’s August Annual General Meeting, where the State Interests and Governance Authority (SIGA) tasked BOST to deliver profitability and declare dividends to the state by year-end—a clear signal of rising expectations for strategic state assets.

Under the leadership of Board Chairman Professor Saint Kuttu and Managing Director Awoonor, BOST Energies has moved decisively from a storage-focused operator to a commercially positioned energy transition company, emphasizing infrastructure modernization, digitalization, and sustainability integration. The visit to the Ga Mantse therefore fits within a broader narrative of renewal—one that combines commercial discipline with social consciousness and cultural respect.

As the company continues to balance its twin mandates of maintaining national fuel security and driving commercial growth, its growing engagement with traditional authorities and local communities underscores a defining philosophy of the new BOST Energies: that true transformation is not only measured in profits, but also in partnerships that build shared progress.
