Nigeria partners Niger, Chad on rehabilitation of Lake Chad Basin

, Niger and Chad are working on a joint trans-border agroecosystem project aimed at the restoration of livelihoods and rehabilitation of the Lake Chad Basin.

According to him, the project includes the promotion of agroforestry and livestock development in the three participating countries bordering the Lake Chad Basin. “That’s why we are developing a project that will help in rehabilitating the Chad basin,” Mr Hassan said. The GGW boss said that the agency’s efforts were aimed at reclaiming land in the country’s 11 driest states, which had different ecosystems with lots of agricultural, livestock and economic activities.

Once completed, the 8,000-kilometre-long wall and natural wonder of the world, stretching across the entire width of over 20 countries in the continent, would be the largest living structure on the planet.
