The Niger Delta is home to one of the world’s largest wetland ecosystems, providing a habitat for a vast array of plant and animal life. However, the wetlands are under threat from oil pollution, deforestation, urbanization, and climate change.

“The Niger Delta’s wetlands are a national treasure that requires our immediate attention and protection,” said Tife Owolabi, Project Manager for The Wire NG. “We are committed to using our platform to raise awareness about the importance of preserving these vital ecosystems.”

The campaign will feature a series of articles, videos, and social media posts that highlight the importance of wetlands and the challenges they face. The Wire NG will also partner with local communities, NGOs, and government agencies to promote sustainable development and conservation efforts.

“We believe that by working together, we can make a difference and ensure that the Niger Delta’s wetlands continue to thrive for generations to come,” added Project Manager.
