Activists in Nigeria are calling for greater awareness and more action to protect the country’s natural resources and promote sustainable living.
Environmental issues remain a key concern for local communities who say that more needs to be done, notably on the issues of waste management and recycling.
Participants in a recent hike for the environment said awareness campaigns play an important role.
“Most of the places where we go hiking are mountains, nature, bushes. These are the places we call our home,” said Adebayo Babatunde, Founder of Nigeria Adventure which organised the hike.
“If we don’t preserve it who will? If we don’t create awareness who else will do it,” he said.
