The study focused on the Niger Delta due to the its peculiar characteristics and susceptibility to the impacts of climate. The study found out that corruption has led to the failure of institutions responsible for managing the impacts of climate change in the region, and subsequently recommended that there should be strict supervision of funds meant for climate change, while those involved in corrupt practices should be punished to serve as a deterrent to others.
