World Radio Day is an international day set aside by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) and celebrated on the 13th of February every year. It is a day dedicated to celebrating the power and importance of radio in our daily lives. This year’s theme, “Radio and Climate Change,” holds great significance for our community in Nigeria, as we face the devastating effects of climate change on our environment and livelihoods.

Radio has always been a trusted source of information and a lifeline for communities, especially in times of crisis. In recent years, it has played a crucial role in raising awareness about climate change and its impact on our planet. With its wide reach and accessibility, radio has the power to educate and mobilize Individuals towards taking action against climate change.

At the 29th session of the Conference of Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29) in Baku Azerbaijan, President Tinubu highlighted Nigeria’s vulnerability to climate change and outlined the nation’s strategies to mitigate its impact. He also emphasized Nigeria’s effort to implement a policy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, enhance resilience, and integrate climate solutions into national planning.

On this World Radio Day, we urge all radio stations in Nigeria to use their platforms to create awareness about climate change and its impact on our country. Through informative and educational programs, we can equip our communities with the knowledge and tools to adapt to the changing climate and mitigate its effects. It is also crucial for radio stations to collaborate with other organizations and experts in the field of climate change to provide accurate and reliable information to our listeners. By featuring interviews with scientists, environmentalists, and policymakers, we can enhance our understanding of the issue and work towards finding sustainable solutions in line with President Bola Ahamed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

Furthermore, we call upon our community to use this opportunity to reflect on our actions and how they contribute to climate change. Simple changes in our daily habits, such as reducing plastic usage, conserving energy, and promoting sustainable agriculture, can make a significant impact in the long run.

As we celebrate the role of radio in fighting climate change, we must also remember that these issues go beyond borders. The effect of climate change is felt globally and it is our responsibility to join hands with other nations to find solutions and create a better future for the generations to come.

In conclusion, I congratulate UNESCO on this initiative. Let us use the power of radio to bring about positive change in our communities and combat the harmful effects of climate change. With concerted efforts, we can create a more sustainable and resilient Nigeria. On this occasion of World Radio Day, let us pledge to make a difference and protect our planet for future generations.

Happy World Radio Day!

Mohammed Idris, fnipr
Honourable Minister of Information and National Orientation.
