COP 29: A CALL TO AFRICAN LEADERS

As world leaders gather for yet another UNFCCCC Conference of Parties (COP29), let the welfare of the common people be at the center of deliberations and discussions.

African leaders should not see the COP as "business-as-usual", while big corporations hijack the COP process for business negotiations and unfair policies. This is not a time to promote false solutions such as Geoengineering and other rhetoric used to bypass the need to review the environmental policies across the world, especially the issues of environmental rights abuses suffered by the global south, in the name of Fossil Fuel Extraction.

Let us also remember that the big corporations in the global north have strongly contributed to the global climate crisis experienced today. Climate financing should be contributed by the global north countries to address the climate impacts in the global south.

We demand for real solutions to the climate crisis, a reduction of emissions, payment of loss and damages, reparations and policies that promote environmental protection.

You may wear your jacket the wrong way and be forced to take it off and wear it again. All this will make you late the more. We must have experienced this one way or the other. Yesterday, I realized that we have just 4 months till the end of the year and I just shrugged it off because even though the year ran fast, “What Will Be Will Be”. This realization may be triggering for some people, especially those who have grandeur plans for the year, lists of achievements, things they want to accomplish in 2025 and things like that. If you haven’t done what you think you need to do, the rush of the year may actually mess with your mind, making you feel like you’re being left behind....

“Halt all divestment process till IOCs remediate and repair the Niger Delta region”- stakeholders urge National Assembly

In the face of the divestment of the International oil companies (IOCs), as they sell off their on-shore oil fields to local companies, moving their operations to deep waters, this has sparked concerns about the future of host communities and the environment. Civil society organizations, environmental activists, academia and other stakeholders have raised the question of who will take the reins and ensure accountability for maintaining the oil wells and facilities, loss of livelihoods suffered by host communities, and the remediation of damaged lands and waters. These concerns shaped the conversations at the Community Town Hall Meeting on Oil Divestment and Transition Accountability in the Niger Delta which held on the 25th of March 2026 in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
