Rotary Club of Abuja Ministers Hill Creates Green Legacy with Successful Tree Planting Project in Line with Rotary International's Environmental Focus

70 Trees Planted at Jahi 2 Community Secondary School, Supported by District 9125 Officers

In a resounding testament to the power of community engagement and environmental stewardship, the Rotary Club of Abuja Ministers Hill has successfully completed a transformative tree planting project at the Jahi 2 Community Secondary School. Aligned with Rotary International's focus on supporting the environment, this monumental endeavor took place on the 19th of August and saw the planting of 70 Monoon Longifolium trees, commonly known as Masquerade trees, to enhance both the environment and education.

The project resonates deeply with Rotary's longstanding commitment to community service and environmental responsibility. Rotary International, founded in 1905, has a rich history of promoting positive change and fostering unity. It was in the spirit of this legacy that the Rotary Club of Abuja Ministers Hill, led by its dedicated Club President Rtn Daniel Etameta and Club Project Director Rtn Stanley Oranika, orchestrated this dynamic initiative.

The Jahi 2 Community Secondary School buzzed with activity as club members and District 9125 officers united in purpose. Among those in attendance were Rtn James Ugbeda, the Zonal Coordinator, and Assistant Zonal Coordinator Rtn Annie Maria. The project was further supported by Rtn Mary Udenze, the District Chair on Environment, and Rtn Belinda Chinwe Madubuike, Assistant Governor of District 9125. Their collective presence underscored Rotary's commitment to the betterment of communities and the environment.

"This tree planting project not only enriches our environment but also aligns seamlessly with Rotary International's focus on supporting the environment," remarked Rtn Daniel Etameta, Club President of the Rotary Club of Abuja Ministers Hill. "We are walking in the footsteps of Rotary's legacy by creating lasting positive change that echoes the values Rotary was founded upon."

Rtn Stanley Oranika, the Club Project Director, emphasized the profound impact of the initiative. "Our actions today reflect Rotary's enduring commitment to service. By planting these trees, we are nurturing the well-being of our community and our environment, ensuring a brighter future for all."

With the planting complete, the Rotary Club of Abuja Ministers Hill and District 9125 officers eagerly anticipate the flourishing of the newly planted trees, symbolizing their unwavering commitment to positive change and a greener, more sustainable future.

As the Rotary Club of Abuja Ministers Hill continues to align its actions with Rotary International's vision and its legacy of community service, the tree planting project stands as a testament to Rotary's enduring spirit of unity, purpose, and positive impact.

Beautiful!

Reminds me of the quote from a good movie, King Solomon's Mine.

"God of the Earth, Sun and Stars, take our bodies and make from them great Trees and let it be a reflection of what our lives here on this earth".

Amazing

Nice

Nice development but the tree is too close to the fence....

Planting trees very close to the fence isn't wise though, the roots will fall that fence in a few years time

If people know the importance of tree.

The energy they breath out is good for human being because of purification.

Is the trees not too close to the building, which hasn't been plastered and finish. ?

Hope it won't be destroyed when it time to complete the building, anyways nice one for the environment congratulations

I hope Wike doesn't uproot the trees and that building later

It baffles me that at this age and time, we are still not planting economic trees. Palm trees, cashew, mangoes, blueberries, avocado, etc. These trees do well in Abuja! Why are we not thinking about the future? I don't need to state how important those trees are; you can't compare their canopies with this useless masquerade tree! But alas... We mostly act without critical thinking in this our nation

How can I join any tree planting event in Lagos

If only THE DRUG LORD can plant a single tree before announcing it to the good people of Nigeria. Rather it will be, Emilokan has promised to plant a tree, no date no time, no location; audio planting.

Ok

That is too close to the fence. The should have look for green areas or more strategic location

Nice 👍

Good point about it's closeness to the fence. This "tree" is actually an ornamental plant. Much of it's growth is vertical. It doesn't spread out horizontally like the normal tree

You right about its closeness to d fence but the tree is actually an ornamental plant. It doesn't really spread out like a normal tree. It's growth is only vertical

Plenty people with little sense.
