Abstract

This research examines Nigeria’s environmental legal framework and the unresolved issues amidst environmental pollution and degradation in the country. Economic development activities, especially in the oil and gas sector, accelerate the deterioration of the environmental quality and play a prominent role in the transmission of communicable diseases in Nigeria and devastation of the land for agriculture. This paper, therefore, examines the various sources of Nigeria's environmental problems, its existing legal and institutional arrangements and suggests strategies for effective environmental management in Nigeria.
