It is noteworthy that all constructions including farming destroy natural environment and devastate the forest and biodiversity. Forest harvest reduces forest thickness and tree densities, exposes the land to degradation and subsequently constraints food production, animal rearing and security. More precariously, is the induced migration of forest dwelling creatures from such zones of environmental degradation and increasing scarcity of basic forest resources. All these are attributable to human activities that are have depleted the forest, its resources and the biodiversity. When these are attained, Nigeria may begin to have an environment characterised by luxuriant forest and biodiversity of national pride.
