The tree planting campaign was part of activities to mark the 2024 World Environment Day organised by the Bauchi State Rural Water and Sanitation Agency in collaboration with the United Nations’ Children Fund (UNICEF).

Mu’azu said proactive measures were imperative to ensure effective enforcement of environmental laws, and to prosecute offenders to check indiscriminate felling of trees in the state.

The community leader, who decried the alarming rate of tee felling, said the measure would pritect forest resources and enhance environmental sustainability.

“Strict measures are necessary to check the menace of tree felling in the state, it will also encourage reforestation, conserve the environment and mitigate climate change,” he said.

Mr Garba Adamu, the Ward Head, Nasara ‘B’, lauded the tree planting in the school, adding that it would protect it against windstorm and land degradation.

“The selection of the school for the tree planting is strategic because some spart of the tructure building had been destroyed by windstorm,” he said.

He said the community would support the school to ensure monitoring of the plants to maturity.
