Representing his boss, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, today the vice President Kashim Shettima spoke at the Leaders’ Climate Summit at the ongoing #COP30 in Belém, Brazil.

In his remarks, he reaffirmed Nigeria’s global climate leadership with a commitment to achieving an emission reduction target of 32% by 2035.

He also charged world leaders to move beyond pledging to performance, and from dialogue to taking reasonable action in tackling climate change and its attendant natural disasters that have claimed innocent lives and rendered many homeless across the globe.

Indeed, let COP30 be remembered as the moment when the world moved from pledges to performance, from ambition to action, and from dialogue to delivery.
