Ekiti Government Rallies Stakeholders for Climate Action

The Ekiti State government has urged stakeholders to unify efforts to address the pressing issue of climate change and mitigate its adverse effects on the environment. The call to action was made by the Commissioner for Environment and Natural Resources, Tosin Aluko-Ajisafe, who highlighted the need for collaborative support to build a sustainable future for the state.

Aluko-Ajisafe, addressing attendees at the Ekiti State Climate Action Plan Engagement Session in Ado-Ekiti, emphasised that a collective approach would be instrumental in confronting the region’s climate-related challenges. Represented by the Ministry’s Permanent Secretary, Tunde Balogun, she stressed that Ekiti aims to become a key destination for green investment in Nigeria.

“The Climate Action Plan is a way of identifying the risks that climate change poses to the policy areas and plans of this administration and the state in general,” said Aluko-Ajisafe. She elaborated that the plan will also explore how Ekiti can adapt to these environmental challenges while contributing to Nigeria’s national climate initiatives. “The overall intention is not to invent a new policy or to confuse existing plans, but rather to promote us to think about how they will be affected by the challenges of climate change and to bring all of the climate change-related elements of our work into one document where they can be accessed and understood.”

The session, attended by officials, environmental advocates, and community leaders, was an opportunity for stakeholders to discuss strategies for integrating climate resilience into state policies.

Additionally, the Ekiti State Governor’s Technical Advisor on Climate Change, Mr. Oliver Owen, called for collective responsibility among Ekiti’s residents. He encouraged everyone to actively participate in efforts to combat climate change, reinforcing the importance of a unified community response in achieving sustainable progress for the state.
