I Found A Town in Nigeria Where They Don't Cut Trees

[@claireseyeviewonredbubble]

Trees are the lungs of the planet and provide us with the oxygen we need. And hold the soil together and prevent it washing away. And provide shelter and often supply foods.

[@magedelsariakoussy907]

I wish the U.S.A learn from that old man … My deepest respect to him🙏

[@garbaado9147]

Perhaps this is one of the videos i have ever come across.If i were among the member of FG committee,Wallahi i would suggest Nde Amos the chief of Ballang to be made 1st class chief of Plateau state.With love from Kaugama Jigawa state.🙏🙏🙏

[@aframaco9491]

This is unbelievable! What great scenic beauty! But David, you waka o!! You waka far!!! I am lost for words, this location could rival the Garden of Eden!! Beautiful Plateau state! Landowners and property developers in Lekki, take due note!! Plant trees eeeehhh!!! 👊🏾🇳🇬👊🏾🇳🇬!!

[@greaterworks6586]

I’m so impressed with this chief and his community. KZbin community, why don’t we come together to buy this community solar panels so they can have electricity

[@TheMillennialPlantDad]

This is so amazing . I am so happy that there is a whole community that really knows the benefits of trees and preserves them in Nigeria . It’s very promising. We need more people like these people!!

[@sonofra889]

Good to see this community being good custodians of nature. The paramount chief knows that the best time to plant a tree is... 20 years ago. Kudos to all involved in this exposé!!!

[@vicabok]

God bless you Nde, at least there are still sane people in my state!

[@Avoidthismistake]

Beautiful story, I love to hear this, at least to see people who respect nature .Please they should keep up this amazing culture. Love from Canada

[@blainecelestaine4543]

I would make they suggestion of Mexican sunflower. Which grows prolific. Is a balanced fertilizer. Insecticide and pain killer. The woody stalks can be burned. Or shredded and composted . They can contact me for other suggestions..

[@carmelhegarty9829]

From:- Ireland, absolutely beautiful post from you David. Tree's here in Ireland are respected and spiritual. Our CREATOR was crucified and died upon a tree. God Bless You David. 🙏🇮🇪🙏

This ruler should be given a national award

[@chinweokwuasimonye8871]

Thank you very much oo My beloved brotha ooo I highly appreciate this video Now I know where I'll be moving to When I return to Nigeria I love the scenery and landscape of the town Extra bonus for me that the town to no have electricity What one have experienced with energy weapon attacks with the aid of electricity Heyyyy! 😔 I'll be highly grateful and highly happy to live anywhere that do not have electricity 😂 They seem happy to me and they look like they've good quality of life without electricity

[@henryikennaosuala8190]

[@empresskofoworolatv]

These community and the chief deserve a world recognition award respect to them 🙏

[@veraa.9656]

Nice story. Actually, it pains when I travel home and see my people cut down trees for flimsy excuses. But I found out it's for money. This chief should be commended 👌

[@nwayemikemichael6919]

Please Keep this up David. You are inspiring more people than you know. For some of us, that need reasons to keep believing in this country, your content is doing some amazing things to keep us sane.Thanks a lot man.

[@DavidNkwa]

Thank you so kindly

[@veronicaarias211]

How pretty looks peaceful a beautiful place

[@livingmybestlife-v6v]

David Nkwa, I pray that the international organization comes across this video and get to learn about the people of this community. I couldn’t sleep very well after watching this video because I have not seen a people so content. How much is a bag of fertilizer? The paramount chief should have been one of the delegates to Dubai for Climate Summit instead of people like Toke Makinwa.

[@DavidNkwa]

Very true, they are the ones really walking the talk

[@MontellX]

I believe they have a local government chairman, what happen to the fund allocated to them? That should be enough to help and encourage farmers!

[@Smartcitymovie]

The community is beautiful

[@laurahharrison7400]

Fantastic effort...the Community needs to.look into organic fertilizer made from leaves grass and soil plus water that is left to compost ...which is then applied to the soil with all the trees I am sure there is a good amount of leaves that can be used as ground cover snd that will decompose naturally....chemical fertiliser will only add to their problems and make the soil more infertile...

[@MargaritaRegacho]

Very impressive and very helpful for not cutting trees. Godbless ❤️ Nigeria 🙏🏻

[@zama3009]

well done David,i have always enjoyed most of your content /episodes but this particular episode is very dear to my heart as an enviromentalist and a nature lover.Keep it up Bro.

[@originalceo]

This is a shocker but I'm so glad. Very beautiful scenery. At long last area where people appreciate natural tree shades!!😅😅😅 God bless chief and council. May God prosper there works of their hands.

[@aSlimtube]

Brilliant brilliant presentation. Thanks to you and the chief.

[@Ded-Ede]

12:41 hopefully they get solar panels on the roofs and open fields.

[@everydaywitkaycee]

They can make Organic Fertilizers from food waste and a few additives

[@blackpalacemusic]

Yes they should compost!

[@jenniiferpiiter8868]

there is this oak tree called the cork oak used in making wine corks soles for shoes

[@cmartin5903]

Wow! This is beautiful ❤️😍

[@sukilah1616]

❤ it will take years to grow trees ..Keep the trees and use food scraps for compost to keep nutrition in the soil

[@kennybalogun1332]

Brother David, l love you so much for this wise question you asked, if the Award came with money? it would have gone a long way for the Community, e.g the electricity, feterlizer for the farmers than the useless cut plastic given to the people, thanks for your support everywhere you have been 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉.

[@DavidNkwa]

Thank you so kindly

[@silvermyst3081]

This is good to see. I wish there were more like this chief. I thought that we people of the earth (people of different color are always saying that our color is like dirt/soil) perhaps we were created as caretakers of earth. but we have not done our part.

[@wittyeva_]

First here…keep this up

[@rosemond1644]

[@user-144k]

[@emmanuelzelifac9609]

I would say get someone who can teach them methods of producing fertilizers, naturally.

[@christopherbegley8755]

Commendable and admire the thought for your purified living in growth and harmony with mother earth, anyways another blessing is yall have great sunshine and can use it in a way that will make solar panels and batteries look like a stone hammer compared to what your genius citizens can come with and implement, but anyways if you don't respect and worship The LORD, your amazing potential will b scattered and wasted, The Kingdom o God is men thinking righteous and Listening to ,and action on Holy Spirit instruction and initiatives through a personal and purified environment and relationship for the Love o God and kingdom for the benefit o his creation, our home ,always I will ❤and praise theLORD

[@NiisExperience]

What Software do you use for your subtitles please

[@ananmai8700]

USE "Cow shit or most people called it Cow-down, use that as the fertilizer, I was born in Guyana, South America, my father used to send me for cow-down to mold the Plant, or greens, normally, I usually pickup the cow-down when it's already dry from the pasture, so we break it up in our farm area, throw water on the cow-down, while on the farm soil, & mixed it with our hands however, as a large farmland, WHEN they was not modern fertilizer, we should to plant, so, go back to this cow down

[@sundaynight5870]

Plant more economic trees like mango,cashews, bananas act

[@placesandspaces3489]

Where do they get wood for building?

[@chijiokechukwubuikem5643]

Edo state. lol

[@DavidNkwa]

They buy

[@MajorrBison]

Tell lagos people to start planting trees and stop cutting existing ones. When you build a house, leave some trees or plant some like coconut trees, even pine trees like christmas trees.

[@franklingeorge6174]

I totally would love to live there... How far is it from Jos town?

I don't even know how many handclap i should give this chief. I wish the government and ppl in my country Sierra leone 🇸🇱 can all watch this bc this is our biggest problem in Sierra leone.

[@Not_really]

My only question is this: where do they get the wood for their house and other construction work? Don't tell me they get their wood from other communities.

[@DavidNkwa]

they buy

[@YusufKingOBY]

This is so good to watch and we all can learn from them as well.

[@ChiAngel]

Chief is starting to see fruit of his labor, global warming is not as effective to them. Trees bring so much life, a pleasure to see a man stand for something controversial. He is not going to change, nor the council. He earned the award but yes, he is due so much more for this work than that small plaque. GOD be with them & you for sharing

[@DavidNkwa]

Very true Ma.
