Nigeria and other African countries are losing as much as $3.8 billion to erosion, pollution and other environmental and health threatening issues

The stakeholders said endangered species have been growing rapidly while the rate of ecosystem degradation over the past two decades have increased dramatically.

They feared that warming rate of the ecosystem challenges may lead to the extinction of over one million plants and animal species across the world, especially in Africa “The inherent and associated losses that accrue to nature are indeed undermining the increasing investment for sustainable development in the run-up to 2030. Therefore, the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework need to acknowledge the urgency to stop and reverse the nature and biodiversity losses if the aspirations of the United Nations 2030 Agenda must be achieved,” Adeleke said.
