FG to prioritise food security, climate actions

The Federal Government has emphasised President Bola Tinubu’s proactive stance on addressing food security in Nigeria and his administration’s deep commitment to combating climate change.

The Special Assistant to the President on Climate Change Matters, Yusuf Kailani, stated this while fielding questions from journalists at a high-level dialogue on the flood impact report in Abuja on Wednesday.

He said, “The President has raised concerns about the impacts of climate change and is actively leading efforts to address them. Professionals and experts are being engaged to ensure the continuity and success of the initiatives, stressing the importance of partnerships with relevant stakeholders to achieve the nation’s climate goals.

“Governance is a continuous project. The government cannot do it alone. As Nigeria prepares for the upcoming COP29, numerous activities are underway to showcase the country’s progress on the global stage.”
