Representatives of Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) in the cooking energy sector have agreed to develop a clean cooking policy to promote clean cooking in Nigeria.
According to data, cooking with unclean energy source like firewood or charcoal leads to serious health problems like acute lower respiratory infection in children. It causes chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, heart disease and lung cancer. “Smoke from the kitchen in Nigeria leads to 78,000 premature deaths and about 55 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalents are emitted from the same source.”
This was the outcome of a clean cooking governance workshop funded by Heinrich Boll Stiftung with the theme “Improving Clean Cooking Policies and Institutional Framework in Nigeria,” held in Abuja, recently.
