Mr. Danlami Kawule, Commissioner for Housing and Environment, stated this at a high-level workshop on climate change, on Monday, July 14, 2025, in Bauchi, the state capital.

The exercise was organised by the ministry in collaboration with the OXFAM and Global Initiative for Food Security and Ecosystem Preservation (GIFSEP). 

He highlighted the devastating effects of climate change on agriculture and food systems precipitated by desertification and erratic rainfall, which reduced crop yields and threatened livelihoods.

 “Our green areas are disappearing, farmlands are drying up, and food production is becoming increasingly uncertain,” he said.

According to Kawule, the Bauchi State Climate Change Policy is a strategic roadmap to mitigate these impacts, build agricultural resilience, and secure longterm food security.

“Climate change is not just an environmental issue; it is a threat to our food supply and economic stability.

“This policy will help us protect our people and their sources of livelihood,” he said.

Dr Michael David, Executive Director, GIFSEP, stressed the need for proactive measures to tackle climate induced food insecurity.

He noted that farmers in the state were already experiencing the consequences of reduced harvests, hunger and increased vulnerability.

The policy, he said, provided a framework for adaptive farming and climate smart agriculture to improved food systems.

Also, Kenneth Akpan of OXFAM, reiterated commitment to support grassroots climate resilience, adding that, “to end hunger, we must fight climate change.” 

Earlier, Nasiru Umar, Director, Climate Change in the ministry, called for inclusive implementation of the policy, to engage women and youth, who made up the majority of the workforce in agriculture.

 “They must be empowered with resources and training to adapt to the changing climate.”
