Conservation

Our environment is important; I come from Nigeria’s greenbelt and believe we need to pursue endeavours that conserve and clean our environment. We cannot carry out actions without thinking of what the impact will be on our environment. So from the view of the plants, animals and the natural systems around us, we need to figure out ways to not destroy and nullify the roles each of these elements play in the natural order of things. Thus, the need to teach our future generation how to be more involved in that conservation. Also being based in the agricultural sector, I am keen on the results of our activities on our environment.

Sehai Foods Ltd, a company I co-founded within the Apiculture value chain is focused on sustainable bee keeping practices in line with Sustainable Development Goals during the honey production process. Looking at the impact of beekeeping on the world we see that bees pollinate about 35% of crops in the world. Beekeeping is one agricultural enterprise that despite being a profit entity helps in conserving our environment and thus in turn creates conservation awareness in the sub-Saharan Africa. I am therefore interested at speaking and sharing thoughts in forums and events on how to better conserve our environment.
