Gaza War May Cause Global Famine, Varsity Professor Caution

Abdullahi Alanamu, a professor of plant anatomy and taxonomy at the University of Ilorin (UNILORIN), has issued a warning regarding the impending global famine brought on by the conflict in Gaza.

In an interview with LEADERSHIP in Ilorin, Kwara State, Alanamu claimed that the prolonged fighting between Israel and Palestine in Gaza had harmed trees, impacted flora, and contaminated waterways.

The university lecturer frowned at how the UN and superpowers were handling the various wars going on in the world, and warned that it would take decades to remove the pollutants that atomic chemicals had unleashed into the environment.

In his call for peaceful coexistence among people everywhere, Alanamu compared the current conflicts to global pandemics like COVID-19 and the Ebola virus, the aftermath of which would pose health risks to both people and wildlife.

Alanamu aimed to minimize the effects of factory pollution by implementing environmental rules with fidelity. Manufacturing enterprises are known to pollute the environment.

In order to prevent desertification, he urged the government to support community tree planting initiatives and emphasized the importance of starting afforestation projects like Saudi Arabia’s Green Reyahd project.

In addition, Alanamu requested that the government provide kerosene subsidies or free usage in order to deter people from utilizing firewood and charcoal.
