In his keynote address on behalf of the President, Senator Kyari described the initiative as a landmark step in international cooperation to build flood resilience, noting that Nigeria remains severely affected by climate-induced flooding that devastates farmlands, infrastructure and livelihoods.
He reaffirmed President Tinubu’s determination to pursue long-term climate adaptation through enhanced early-warning systems, flood-resilient infrastructure, improved disaster-response coordination and community-led solutions.
The President outlined the project’s four core pillars:
Advanced Early Warning Systems
Flood-Resilient Infrastructure
Capacity Building and Knowledge Transfer
Community
Engagement and Local Participation
Senator Kyari assured international partners of Nigeria’s full commitment to the initiative, pledging active collaboration to bolster national resilience and safeguard vulnerable communities.
The ceremony drew policymakers, development partners, disaster-management specialists and members of the diplomatic corps, underscoring a collective resolve to create a safer, more resilient future in the face of escalating flood risks.
