The Federal Government of Nigeria has called on developed countries through their high commissions and embassies to support Nigeria in the implementation of its Environmental Protection Programmes.
Minister of Environment, Mohammad Abubakar, made the call at the inauguration of Nigeria’s National Reducing Emission from Deforestation and Forest Degradation, (REDD+) strategy document, in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital.
Abubakar said the government would remain committed to ensuring a healthy and safe environment, adding that the support from other developed countries would enhance its efforts.
He called on the United Kingdom and other governments, through their high commissions and embassies here in Nigeria, “to hear and to amplify our message”.
