Highlighting the multifaceted benefits of afforestation, Yaa Naa stressed its pivotal role in mitigating the adverse effects of climate change, particularly in the northern regions where erratic rainfall patterns pose significant challenges to livelihoods.  

He lauded the initiative’s potential to enhance economic opportunities, preserve biodiversity, and mitigate the threat of bushfires, thereby safeguarding the environment for future generations.

In a passionate plea, Yaa Naa Abubakari Mahama II advocated for a concerted effort to promote the cultivation and protection of shea trees, a vital economic resource for the region’s inhabitants.

He also urged the Minister of Lands and Natural Resources, Hon. Samuel Jinapor, to spearhead initiatives aimed at expanding shea tree cultivation and safeguarding existing wild trees from annual bushfires.

The Overlord of the Dagbon further reiterated his unwavering commitment to championing environmental conservation efforts within the Dagbon traditional area and beyond.

He called on his paramount and divisional chiefs to actively participate in the Green Ghana Day initiative and ensure its success through diligent oversight and reporting.

Meanwhile, the Minister of Land and Natural Resources while touting the remarkable achievements of the initiative disclosed that since its inception three years ago, over 42 million trees have been planted nationwide, surpassing targets and exceeding expectations.  

With unwavering determination, Honorable Jinapor announced an ambitious target of planting an additional ten million trees during this year’s Green Ghana Day, under the theme “Growing for a Greener Tomorrow.”

This theme he said underscores the essence of nurturing planted trees to maturity, thereby maximizing its contribution to climate resilience.
