Ibanga, Favour Essien.
I hail from Akwa Ibom state but attended secondary school in Bayelsa while my family’s residence is Rivers state. I have witnessed first-hand the environmental crises facing the Niger Delta region from flooding to gas flaring.
I am now a campus journalist at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka where I champion truth. I am also a passionate speaker( I was runner up for Open Speech Day public speaking tournament) and advocate for environmental and social issues affecting Nigeria and beyond.
I believe in a better Nigeria and I plan to write a full article on environmental crises and sustainable solutions for my country’s future.
When the oil finishes, how will we survive?

This essay explores the Niger Delta environmental crisis that has been plaguing the region for decades due to oil extraction. It also proposes sustainable solutions to address Nigeria's over-reliance on the Niger Delta oil and renewable energy adoption, making climate change adaptation and restoration a reality.
