FG pledges commitment to environmental protection.
The Federal Government says it is committed to tackling ecological challenges facing different parts of the country.
The Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Environment, Mahmud Kambari, made the pledge at the Inauguration and Retreat for Chairmen and members of the Governing Boards of Agencies under the ministry.
Kambari, who was represented by the Director of Legal Department, Oluwayemisi Salako, said the ministry's focus areas include climate change adaptation, biodiversity conservation, pollution control, and natural resource management.
According to him, these efforts align with President Bola Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda, which aims to foster an environment that supports sustainable economic growth, resilience, and a healthy ecosystem.
The newly appointed board chairmen and members were urged to be transparent, accountable, to embrace data-driven decision-making frameworks to improve efficiency and public trust, and to push the agencies towards achieving their mandates in environmental protection, restoration, and sustainable development.
