AGESI has partnered with the Nigeria Climate Investment Summit, London, in an alliance that will project Nigeria as a lead actor in addressing climate change concerns.
COP30 reinforced a growing consensus that Africa should no longer be viewed solely through the lens of climate risk, AGESI said.
Mr Itua urged engineers to evolve from task executors to architects of a resilient, climate-ready country.
The statement said the former president commended Mr Akenge for the foresight in establishing a platform celebrating environmental stewardship.
Mr Onoja urged Nigerians to embrace social and urban development that respects nature.
Mr Itua said, “We do not import models; we co-create solutions that work for Africa’s unique context and aspirations.”
“Our mandate was to protect the project from regulatory risk and provide the legal foundation for financing,” said Mr Itua.
“Seplat Energy’s transparency in ESG reporting attracted foreign institutional investors, lowering its financing costs,” said Mr Itua.
“The GOI is Africa’s answer to the global capital gap. It shows where nature is bankable, where governance is investable, and where capital can flow with confidence,” Mr Itua said.
The summit witnessed the introduction of AGESI’s flagship initiative, the Green Opportunity Index.
