Monrovia – The Board of Directors of the Liberia Petroleum Regulatory Authority has congratulated Director General Marilyn T. Logan on her selection as a member of the Fifth Cohort of Amujae Leaders, describing the honor as a reflection of her “caliber of leadership” and growing influence in Liberia’s energy sector.
The Board said Logan’s inclusion in the prestigious Amujae Initiative of the Ellen Johnson Sirleaf Presidential Center for Women and Development places her among a select group of African women leaders recognized for both their accomplishments and future potential.
In a statement, the LPRA Board noted that the Amujae Initiative remains one of Africa’s most competitive leadership platforms, bringing together women leaders from across the continent to strengthen governance, leadership, and public service.
According to the Board, Logan’s selection reflects the transformative leadership she has brought to the petroleum regulatory authority since assuming office as the institution’s first female Director General.
Under her leadership, the LPRA concluded Liberia’s first major petroleum agreement in more than a decade — a development the Board described as a landmark achievement that has restored international investor confidence and repositioned Liberia as a credible destination for frontier oil and gas exploration.
The Board further praised Logan for demonstrating “principled, evidence-driven leadership” in one of Liberia’s most technically demanding sectors, adding that her stewardship has elevated the institution’s credibility both nationally and internationally.
As part of the Amujae network, Logan joins 70 women leaders from 29 African countries, creating opportunities for stronger continental partnerships and collaboration.
The Board said the platform will further strengthen Logan’s capacity to advance the LPRA’s institutional mandate while increasing the Authority’s visibility and engagement with global stakeholders in the energy sector.
It also emphasized that her participation in high-level policy discussions and leadership convenings with global figures would generate long-term benefits for Liberia’s petroleum and energy sector.
“The Board is proud of this distinction and extends its warmest congratulations to Director General Logan on this well-deserved honor,” the statement concluded.
