Climate Change: Lagos Could Be Wiped Out, Says French Envoy by BlowBack: 11:21pm On Apr 09, 2017 |
Ambassador Stephane Gompertz, France’s Ambassador for Climate Change, has called for a robust participation from Nigeria at the climate change conference in Paris to protect the city of Lagos. Gompertz raised the spectre of rising temperature and rising sea level, which can lead to the wiping out of the coastal city of Lagos. The Frenchman said Nigeria has a lot to gain from the 21st Conference of Parties (COP) 21, which is scheduled to hold from Nov. 30 to Dec.11 in Paris. The French envoy raised an alarm over the rising global temperatures, saying further rise could put the whole world in jeopardy. COP 21, for the first time in over 20 years of UN negotiations, aims to achieve a legally binding and universal agreement on climate and to keep global warming below 2°C. Gompertz warned: “If we don’t reach an agreement in Paris, it is likely that temperature will continue to rise rapidly. “We’ve seen example and there are other examples that Nigeria seashore being wiped away. I have seen that in Senegal as well. In Senegal, I had examples of Beaches, touristic villages which have just disappeared, replaced and taken over by the sea,” he said. http://thenewsnigeria.com.ng/2015/10/climate-change-lagos-could-be-wiped-out-says-french-envoy/ |

Yet again evidence that Karma comes for the evil. Do we all recall how yoruba used to mock and threaten igbo of "erosion eating igboland and displacing igbo" despite not one scientific data backing that statement up. Now look who scientist are threaten their territory could be wiped out. Karma is a b1tch. More evidence that God truly does not like ugly. I feel zero pity for Afonja people. None. If lagos gets wiped out, oh well. 9 Likes 1 Share |

masseratti: Climate change has reached a point of no return. The adverse effects are already being felt and will continue to be aggravated as the years go by. What is needed now is pragmatic solutions like relocating the Oba of Lagos palace to Ogun state to prevent karma making his throne to be under the Atlantic 3 Likes |

Reminez:That is why when they call Lagos a No man's land or "we developed Lagos" slur they chant I don't respond to their claims because they are only using it to taunt us not like they don't know the truth. That is why they share no spiritual,cultural or traditional attachment to Lagos. That's why they wish for the downfall of Lagos, if they truly developed it they won't wish for its downfall. |
