Commissioner Lauds Effort To Make Sokoto Environment Green

The commissioner for environment in Sokoto State, Alhaji Nura Shehu Tangaza, has lauded the efforts of the “Make Sokoto Green Development Initiative” to lead the state’s environmental sustainability campaign.

He made the commendation when the initiative’s executive director, Mr Nasir Abbas Babi, recently led group members on a courtesy call at his office.

The commissioner said the group’s effort aligns with his ministry’s vision to promote environmental sustainability through proactive actions that would help address the effects of climate change on the state.

According to him, the Sokoto State government is unrelenting in its effort to address the adverse effects of climate change, taking deliberate steps to ensure that the state is in a prime position to produce environmentally friendly products that would benefit human lives and promote livestock farming.

The commissioner praised the initiative’s efforts in combating climate change and mitigating soil erosion and offered full support for its projects.
