Hamza said a lot of people do not understand the importance of tree planting. He said tree planting leads to cleaner air, stabilised soil and that it will reduce the effect of climate change.

 

He said the children, youths, and the old need to understand the importance of trees.

 

The managing director of Agro Preciso, Engr Lawal Nurudeen, in his remarks lauded the organisers and emphasised the need for tree planting as a way of mitigating climate change.

 

“For us who are in the agricultural sector, we are the worst hit by climate change.

 

“During the flooding last year, farmers suffered a great deal. We particularly, lost a lot of crops as a result of the floods in Kogi State to be precise,” he said.

 

Lawal stated that the plan was to plant 70 trees daily and called on the federal government to include tree planting in the constitution.
