Mr. Raynus Henry Ebiegberi, an environmental advocate from the Niger Delta has emphasized the need to protect the mangroves, ecosystem as well as shorelines in the region.
This is as Raynus revealed that his foundation, Safe Earth Foundation, planted 50,000 mangroves on the Claridon Island by the Nun River in Brass Local Government Area of Bayelsa to protect the environment.
Through a Facebook post on Friday, Raynus disclosed that the plants are now flourishing and progressing well in growth.
He noted that the move seeks to protect the environment and shoreline from erosion as well as to support biodiversity.
He said, “This mission is to strengthen mangrove protection, closely monitor their growth, safeguard their stability, and advance environmental sustainability.
“This flourishing vegetation represents a vital step toward restoring fragile ecosystems, shielding shorelines from erosion, and supporting biodiversity.
“We remain deeply committed to nurturing these coastal guardians, ensuring they thrive for generations to come.”
He added that “Together, through dedication and community effort, we are building a greener, more resilient future. Every mangrove planted is a promise kept to our planet.”
