I know you are going to disagree with me...but unfortunately, even with this waste our government is putting us through, climate change is a priority.

1.The Sahara is expanding. That means that lots of farmland in the North could be lost. That means large numbers of refugees running down South. At the end, issues . Let's not forget that Lake Chad drying up, and the impact it could have on things like Boko and banditry.

2.See the Fulani herdsmen crisis? A big part is climate change. Once upon a time, the grassland extended further north than it is now. Now, the Sahara is taking over. That means that herdsmen stay longer in the south. More crisis (Note, I am not here to justify herdsmen. In my opinion, they should have long since set up modern ranches up North).

3.The rising of the atlantic ocean threatens a lot of coastal communites. Lagos has already had some issues as far back as the 1990's self.It is projected to get worse.

4.Excessive rain...mass flooding. Also, poor rain...famine.


5.If you live in the delta. ...unless you like having gas flaring all over the place, you would love cop 20...as it puts pressure on oil companies to reduce flaring. Note..oil companies, not government.


P.S Note that it does not justify the large delegation we sent to Dubai. 100 delegates could have done the job better. Then we got zoom and google meet and technology which can enable attending meetings without travelling self.



See them na politician son be this, considering mass poverty and strong economic downfall climate should be the last fight even though we don’t have the capability to fight it

Nigerians are funny people.

They elect leaders that are 'bigger' than them, leaders that they fear instead of leaders that fear them.
So they have governments they simply cannot control.
And a government that cannot be controlled by 'the people' is not a democratic one in deed.

In other nations where democracy works the moment 'the people' raise issues of concern, those elected to government respond almost instantaneously because they know the consequences of popular discord and know that any lacuna in citizen advocacy immediately transfers power to the opposition.

The summary of all this is that a nation is best served when the citizens put the overall interests of their country and their fellow citizens above themselves, their parochial interests and all other pecuniary sensibilities.

We cannot continue putting people into power only to turn around and bemoan their actions while in government and wail about their poor terms when they vacate office. There should be mechanisms to steer governments in motion towards a desired and expected end.

And they (Nigerians complaining ) will wonder why they remain unemployed or underemployed. Next year when the conference calls for applicants better apply and go with your own money,networking is the way.

Toke has more sense than a lot of Nigerian youths. Simple, her role there is as an influencer,and she has proven her worth,I mean toke was what trended...all she had to do is report the topics and theme of the conference and she has scored big time.

Naijas Toke to the world.

Nigeria 🇳🇬 good in policy formation since 1960, the result always in reverse 🔀. We sponsor 1411 delegates for submit. Check the impact after 2 or 3years and compare to impact it has on China economy, you will realise the money spent is a waste


You might be right

If media dont have anything to say, they should shutup. What is Nigeria delegation the largest in Africa. Is Nigeria not the largest in Africa- both in population and economy? So, Benin Republic or Niger should have the largest representatives? Nonsence

Our attitude of throwing away the baby alongside the bath water can't help us at all rather it will embolden these public officers to indulge in misdemeanours no thanks to your undue pessimism.
This figure is said to be the on-site participants from Nigeria which is different from government delegation.
The diplomats only come to conferences to add credence and support to their bilateral agreements such is the case of Siemens of Germany with Nigeria, remember Olaf Scholz visited President Tinubu not quite long.
The Climate Actions Innovation Zone starts tomorrow 4th to December 8th where I am also supposed to partake but here I am in Naija taking care of my farm.
Not all the participants will grace the event while others may opt for online participation.
We really don't need this hatred for the sake of development in this great country since we have decided not to Japa like cowards.
If we are desirous of good government we should put them on their toes with facts and concrete evidences not hearsay and rumours because to spur some unreasonable sentiments.
It's really not helping us

That number include private individuals and corporates who were nominated by the federal government.

COP28 is a very restricted event, and invitation are usually focused on government representatives. So, the government register some private sector individuals as part of the FG’s delegation.

No matter how connected you are in Nigeria, if you’re not accredited for COP28, you cannot access the venue.

Let’s always get the fact right before rushing to social media to display ignorance.
