This afternoon I paid a working visit to Nigeria’s Chief of Defense Staff, General CG Musa, at the Defense Headquarters in Abuja. Today’s meeting is part of continuous collaborative efforts between the Federal Ministry of Environment and the Nigerian Army to promote key environmental initiatives and protect Nigeria’s forests from illegal activities like poaching and logging. I commend the Nigerian Army for its contributions to National Security, particularly in safeguarding Nigeria's forests from encroachment by bandits and other criminal elements. I am also thankful to the army for the continuous support to the Environment Ministry on other fronts, including our afforestation and reforestation efforts and the implementation of our Circular Economy Roadmap. #GreenNigeria 🌳
