 The Nigerian Conservation Foundation, NCF, says it has been able to plant and nurture over 2 million trees across Nigeria under the Green Recovery Nigeria Program. President Board of Trustees of the NCF, Philippa Siodo, would drop these hints on the sidelines of the Foundation's 34th Annual General Meeting, said their target is to restore Nigeria's forest cover to 25% by 2050. As Siodo said, for four decades, the NCF has achieved sustained environmental impact through consistent implementation of programs that helped restore and conserve the environment. Also speaking, the Director-General of the NCF, Joseph Onoja, haped underneath for Nigerians to help fight climate change. He also highlighted some of the achievements recorded during the year. Meanwhile, environmental activists Desmond Marje Kodumi is hopeful that the government will redeem itself by fulfilling the commitments made of a just confident COP 28. This is just as a chairman of the NCF, Eder Daphnon explained that they have taken significant steps to reduce carbon footprint and invested in renewable energy sources. Watch damage to the various life support systems of this planet, including particularly the trees. Nigeria has to go back to at least 25% of tree cover. Right now it's gone so low. It's very, very, very shameful and totally unacceptable. After this conference that they had in Dubai and we made certain commitments from government, we hope and we pray that government will fulfill the commitments and embark on very, very serious reforestation. And that's not just planting the trees but protecting the ones that are there already. After coming from COP, we are seeing a state government's rising up to clear a forest reserve that has been existing for over 50 years. It's called the Baywood Estates. We are replacing the forest for a concrete jungle. So we are passionately calling on the oil state government, Mr. Shei Makin, to please look at that and look at that decision again and try to stop the devastation that is happening. Ogumpa Forest Reserve or Agodi Gardens, whatever it is called, destruction of our green species in an urban setting is a no-no. If you protect nature, you are protecting the environment and we are also helping to fight climate.
