President Bola Tinubu on Saturday said Nigeria will rollout 100 electric buses in a step towards a sustainable and eco-friendly future,
Tinubu said this in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, on the margins of the COP28 climate summit.
He said the pioneering initiative is to “significantly” reduce Nigeria’s carbon footprint and modernise the country’s transportation systems.
According the President, the initiative stands as a testament to his administration’s dedication to environmental stewardship as clearly exemplified through its collaboration with the Africa Carbon Market Initiative.
While the move is part of efforts to position Nigeria and Africa as the pioneering frontier of green manufacturing and industrialization, Tinubu is urging other countries on the continent to follow suit.
Tinubu said Nigeria’s plans for a greener and cleaner economy can serve as an inspirational narrative for nations worldwide.
