Resource Centre, a not-for-profit organisation, has urged residents of flooding prone communities in Nigeria’s capital city, Abuja, to adopt sustainable environmental practices to mitigate climate change effects.
The awareness campaign movement was organised by HEDA Resource Centre in partnership with Oxfam, with the aim of amplifying the voices of climate vulnerable communities in the country. “God has created the world in a balanced way, we are the ones disturbing the balance through cutting down of trees and improper disposal of plastic wastes within the community. It has to stop,” Mr Arigbabu told residents of the communities during the visit.
“This year, I planted maize and beans but the overflowing water washed off the crops, we could only harvest a few,” she said. He expressed his community’s conviction that planting and nurturing more trees in their community was the only way they could be part of the climate change solution.
