“This event, organised by the Lagos State Parks and Gardens Agency under the Ministry of Environment and Water Resources, holds great significance in fostering a sense of unity and responsibility within the community.

“The core objective of this initiative is to bring people together in a shared mission to protect our environment for the benefit of future generations. LASPARK, operating under the ministry’s guidance, has been given a mandate to plant 20,000 trees over the next year.”
