Ikosi Ejirin Wins Best Nurtured Trees In Lagos

To guide against the disasters being witnessed across the globe due to changing weather  patterns, the Lagos State government and local governments have continued to plant trees due to  global warming and to bring back the memory of a beautiful and greener Lagos.

This exercise has been on since 2008 and it has really achieved far beyond the set objective of reducing the effect of global warming and beautification of the Lagos environment.

However, the commitment of nurturing the trees by each local government and individuals is always appreciated by the Ministry of Environment and Lagos State government.

This was why the Ikosi-Ejirin LCDA under the chairmanship of Prince Segun Adetola was honoured as one with the Best Nurtured Trees in the state while Mrs. Alice Shofolu, the Head of Agriculture and Social Development Department of the same Ikosi-Ejirin LCDA was recognised as the best desk officer in Tree Planting in the state.

The Chairman attributed  the achievements to the high level of commitment of the people of Ikosi-Ejirin LCDA and he urged them not to rest on their oars so that the LCDA continues to maintain this height for as long as possible.
