President Bola Ahmed Tinubu emphasized the crucial role of technology and innovation in advancing sustainable development during his address at Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week 2025. The theme of the event, "From Climate Imperatives to Economic Prosperity: Bringing Africa Into the Future of Global Energy," set the stage for discussions on how nations can address pressing environmental challenges.
In his speech, Tinubu outlined Nigeria's commitment to integrating sustainable practices and advanced technological solutions to combat environmental issues. "Harnessing technology and innovation is key to driving sustainable development," he stated, highlighting the country's strategic initiatives aimed at adopting clean energy solutions, implementing effective water conservation measures, restoring degraded lands, and advancing waste management technologies.
The President particularly noted the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in revolutionizing agriculture. He pointed to Nigeria's arable land as a significant asset for the implementation of advanced farming techniques. "We are finding new, innovative ways to address environmental challenges, ensuring a brighter future through artificial intelligence," Tinubu remarked.
Moreover, Tinubu underscored the necessity for stronger global partnerships to effectively combat climate change and achieve sustainable development goals. "Global solutions will only be effective if we work together in the spirit of mutual respect and a shared future," he asserted, reinforcing Nigeria's belief that sustainable development transcends national boundaries and is a global imperative.
In closing, Tinubu called for enhanced international cooperation, stating that achieving sustainability and mitigating climate change requires collective action among nations. His message at Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week serves as a clarion call for collaboration and innovation in the pursuit of a more sustainable future for all.
