Prof. Oladele Osibanjo, the executive director of Basel Convention Coordinating Centre for the African region, on Tuesday urged Nigerians to begin to imbibe efficient waste management practices.
Osibanjo told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos that it was imperative for young and old Nigerians to differentiate between waste disposal and management.
NAN reports that the main goal of the Basel Convention Regional Centres (BCRCs) is to strengthen the capacities of countries in the region for the implementation of the Basel Convention and its amendments.
