The project’s premiere was yesterday at the Asokoro Primary and Secondary School in Abuja, with a goal of planting 70 trees per day.

According to Gomina, tree planting will lessen the impact of climate change and result in better air and stabilized soil.

In his remarks, The Managing Director of Preciso, Engr Lawal Nurudeen commended the organisers and emphasised the need for tree planting as a way of mitigating climate change.

Nurudeen called on the federal government to include tree planting in the constitution., adding that the plan was to plant 70 trees daily.
