The First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has called on Nigerians to prioritize environmental protection and cleanliness as a shared societal responsibility. She made the appeal in Abuja on Monday while commemorating the International Day of Clean Energy 2026, themed “Clean Energy for People and Planet.”
In her message, Tinubu emphasized that the day serves as a reminder of the collective duty to safeguard the environment and adopt sustainable practices. She encouraged Nigerians to embrace renewable energy and clean technologies, highlighting their importance for survival, healthy living, and environmental stewardship.
“Let us work together to build a greener, healthier planet for all,” the First Lady said, urging individuals, communities, and institutions to take proactive steps toward sustainability. She also extended greetings to Nigerians on the occasion, wishing them a happy International Day of Clean Energy.
The International Day of Clean Energy, observed annually on January 26, was declared by the United Nations General Assembly through resolution A/77/327. The day aims to raise awareness and mobilize global action for a just and inclusive transition to clean energy, benefiting both people and the planet.
Tinubu’s call underscores the importance of collective responsibility in addressing environmental challenges, promoting renewable energy adoption, and ensuring sustainable development for present and future generations.
Im all for protecting the environment, but does First Lady Oluremi Tinubus call really make a difference in Nigerias current environmental crisis?
I appreciate the initiative, but will this just be another empty call to action or will there be tangible ce? Lets wait and see.
I appreciate the sentiment, but how can we truly embrace environmental protection when the governments actions dont align with this message?
I think its great that Mrs. Tinubu is promoting environmental protection. But what about the governments role in implementing sustainable policies?
I dont understand why some people still ignore environmental protection. Lets all do our part for a greener future!
I disagree with First Lady Tinubu. Environmental protection is important, but are Nigerians ready to make the necessary sacrifices?
Im all for saving the environment, but do we really need a First Lady to remind us to clean up our act?

I believe embracing clean energy is crucial for our future. Lets follow First Lady Oluremi Tinubus lead and protect the environment!
