The World Bank has disclosed that about 9.4 million people could become climate migrants in Nigeria by 2050. This disclosure was contained in a new World Bank’s report, Groundswell Africa: Internal Climate Migration in West African Countries.

“No country in West Africa is immune to internal climate migration, but the scale in each country will depend on how the climate factors interact with demographic and socio-economic factors at the local level. The report stated that there would be a more pessimistic scenario over an optimistic scenario, with Nigeria having the highest mean number of internal climate migrants of 8.3 million people by 2050.

“However, smaller countries, such as Benin, also exhibit high internal climate migration figures as a percentage of their total population .”
