 Meanwhile, Delta State has set the pace in Nigeria being the first to endorse the restoration of mangrove forests, seed grass protection and preservation of the ecosystem for conservation and environmental sustainability. Delta State took the lead when it signed a memorandum of understanding with Serendip Capital UK for the restoration and preservation of the state's mangrove forests and its ecosystem at the Government House in Asabata State Capital. Speaking shortly after the signing ceremony, Governor Shariff Oborivori commanded all stakeholders for their visionary approach and unhealed in commitment to shaping the more sustainable environment for current and future generations. Our Asabata correspondent, upon Majoral Friday, reports that Governor Shariff said the memorandum of understanding to sign is very critical to the restoration and preservation of mangrove forests and the entire ecosystem, prioritizing environmental sustainability and ensures local demands for job creation, infrastructure development, education, and climate resilience structures. Certainly, Markable President, by demonstrating how environmental stewardship can harmoniously coexist with human development aspirations, I am deeply committed to environmental conversion and sustainable development and, therefore, to the end of the groundbreaking mangrove and seed grass conservation projects. Finally, I would like to express my gratitude to our foreign partners for choosing Delta State as a potential investment destination. We are committed to building a mutually beneficial partnership that will boost economic growth and enhance the prosperity of our people. On the spot, the managing director of Serendip Capital UK, Rafat Rizvi, thanks to the state government for the partnership, assuring that the project would restore the ecosystem previously damaged by crude oil degradation. It is a long-term 30-40-year solution to having a sustainable environment, one in which there will be a significant amount of job creation, educational opportunities, with a particular emphasis on youth development. This is something that both His Excellency, the governor, has expressed strong desire to see, as well as other members of the cabinet that have been working closely with us. First and foremost, as I said, it will be a better environment, but most importantly, education, jobs, and prosperity for the longer term. With regard to the fact that we have taken steps to legislate and demonstrate this international treaty on an endangered species, we are now amongst the committee of nations. It has huge benefit for Nigeria for funding and support from the international community. It has huge benefit amongst the committee of nations and the respect that Nigeria will now give as a country who takes serious environmental management.
