Nigeria’s consumer goods company, British American Tobacco (BAT) Nigeria, has restated its commitment to addressing climate change, environmental management issues, while ensuring robust corporate governance across its operations.

The group stated this in a message to mark this year’s World Environment Day in Lagos. The company also highlighted some of its achievements and plans in the areas of waste and water management, reduction in carbon dioxide emissions and transition to renewable energy sources in its operations.

This is underpinned by excellence across our other Environmental, Social and Governance priorities.
