Nigeria: President Buhari - Africa Already Suffering From Climate Change

President Muhammadu Buhari Monday in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (UAE) said Africa was already suffering from the consequences of climate change, which include recurrent drought and floods.

A statement issued by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, said the president while addressing the opening of the 2016 World Future Energy Summit reaffirmed Nigeria's readiness to work with the UAE government and rest of the world in a collective effort to mitigate the effects of climate change.

The president called for greater global cooperation against the devastating effects of climate change to avert disaster for the human race in the 21st century.
