“The Day Lagos Turned Into Venice”

Last year, after just two days of heavy rain, streets in Lagos looked like rivers. Cars floated, homes flooded, and people waded through water just to get to work.

It felt unusual — but was it really? Across the world, the weather is changing faster than we can adjust. Rains are heavier, heat waves are longer, and farmlands are drying up. Climate change is no longer a far-away issue in documentaries. It’s happening right here, in our neighborhoods.

The truth is, we can’t ignore it anymore. But we can act. From reducing waste, to rethinking how we consume, to spreading awareness — every little step matters.

At Ekkonow, we’re telling these stories because awareness is the seed of change. If we don’t act now, the future we fear will arrive sooner than we think.

We wish to announce that three members of our community just joined the Nigerian Environmental Society (NES) and are now members of the Institute of Environmental society of Nigeria.

NES is a professional and Nationally recognized chartered body with over 19 chapters in Nigeria, and a mandate to promote public understanding and encourage a sound national policy in matters relating to environmental quality and control.

NES is also recognized by the United Nations , the African Environmental Society - pioneered with African Development Bank and with partnership with Global Plastic...


We look forward to working with other high level professionals and environmental/climate change advocates to bridge the gap between education, awareness and climate-tech.

The history of what we do at Ekko Now cannot be complete without mention of the team at DaHel Consultants & Techies By combining our work in climate-tech, Ed tech and youth empowerment, we are telling the young people working with us that we are prepared to help them succeed.

Congratulations to the new inductees (Stephanie Asanya SNES, Favour Abuo SNES and David Effiong MNES) and to doing great things together!

Have you met someone who worked in Space Technology before?

Our director will be live on this space today to interview someone who once worked with the Nigerian Space Agency and now works to ensure that you and I are familiar with Space Tech and the Opportunities therein!

Our guest (the amazing lady in the photo) is Nelly-Helen.

Nelly-Helen Ebruka is a researcher and space professional with a passion for youth development and engagement. Her work includes collaborating with public and private institutions to design and implement capacity-building initiatives tailored for students and young professionals in the space sector. With an academic interest in the international politics of outer space, Nelly is currently pursuing a PhD in Politics at the University of Manchester, focusing on interregional space cooperation between Africa and Europe.

Nelly-Helen believes anyone can explore the numerous opportunities in space technology. In one of her conversations with our director, she told him, "Don't ever think that NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Nigerian Space Agency or any Space agencies in the world are far from you... get involved and you'd be surprised to see the tons of opportunities many Africans are not aware exist in space technology..."

This interview is one you should never miss if you've been thinking of the Stars and if they're opportunities for you in Space Technology.

All details to join will be in the comment section 👇👇
See you by 7:00pm GMT.

Interview is sponsored by Consultants & Techies

It's a wrap!

We've come to the end of our 3-day virtual conference, "Critical Conversations on Climate Entrepreneurship and Nigeria's Energy Transition Plan"!

We're grateful to everyone who joined us on this journey, exploring the intricacies of climate entrepreneurship and Nigeria's energy transition plan.

From Day 1, we were inspired by the insights of Uzo Mbamalu, CEO of Manamuz Electric, Olumide Kolawole, Climate Finance Specialist, Rohit Siddareddy who shared his perspectives with a case study from India, and David Effiong , Director of Ekko Now, and Dahel Consultants & Techies, who shared valuable perspectives on economic opportunities in climate entrepreneurship.

On Day 2, Sultan Balioglu, Senior Energy Expert, and Daniel Iwuchukwu, Architect, shared valuable perspectives on socio-economic opportunities in renewable energy and innovative homes.

And today, on Day 3, Patrick Ndifon, Founder of Hack51, and Jude Pius, Deputy Director of External Linkages Coordination at the University of Calabar Carbon Innovation Center, equipped us with actionable knowledge on renewable energy opportunities and formulating an action plan for renewable energy transition in Cross River State.

We thank our host, Chibuzor Agomuoh, 2024 Clean Energy Incubator Fellow, and Green Echo for facilitating this powerful conversation.

Special thanks to the Cross River State Government for their support.

And a huge shoutout to Dahel Techies team for overseeing the technical aspects of the conference, ensuring a seamless experience for all participants!

As we conclude this conference, we leave you with a call to action: What's mine to do?

Share your experiences, reflections, and takeaways from this conference on social media!

Hello world! 😊

Why does Africa Matter in Space Technology and where do you fit in?

Everyone of us was excited about the recent progress of Space X in terms of rocket launching. Check out the video 👇

But there's something you must know - especially as an African!

A rocket launch is more than just fire and smoke—it’s a symbol of progress, innovation, and limitless possibilities.

From agriculture and climate monitoring to disaster management, communication, and national security, space tech is shaping Africa’s future. It’s not just about exploring the stars—it’s about solving real-world problems right here on Earth.

That’s why this episode of the Ekko Now Podcast is unmissable! 🎙️ We’re sitting down with Nelly-Helen Ebruka, a space researcher and advocate for youth engagement in the industry.

She’s working to empower young Africans in the space sector and bridge the gap between Africa and Europe in global space cooperation. 🌍🤝

📅 Date: Thursday, 14th March

⏰ Time: 7 PM GMT

If Africa is to claim its place in the global tech revolution, space must be part of the conversation. 🚀

Join us as we explore the opportunities, challenges, and future of space technology in Africa.

P.S. The good thing about this podcast/interview with Nelly-Helen is that you and I will get to know the tons of opportunities available for you in Space Technology.

Don't ever think the Nigerian Space Agency, Space X, or NASA is too far from you.

To the stars 🤩...

This Thursday! Check comment for group link ! 👇👇👇

Day 2 of our 3-day virtual event, "Critical Conversations on Climate Entrepreneurship and Nigeria's Energy Transition Plan", was a game-changer!

We kicked off the day with a quick review of Day 1, and then dived into the world of climate finance with Olumide Kolawole, Climate Finance Specialist. His insights on how climate finance can contribute to Nigeria's energy transition plan sparked interesting discussions and reflections from our participants.

Next, Sultan Balioglu, Senior Energy Expert, took us on a journey to explore the socio-economic opportunities in renewable energy. His presentation opened our eyes to the vast potential of renewable energy in Nigeria.

But that wasn't all! Daniel Iwuchukwu, Architect, shared innovative ideas on cost-effective energy alternatives for homes. His presentation was a perfect blend of sustainability and practicality.

Throughout the day, our participants actively engaged with the speakers, asking thought-provoking questions and sharing their own experiences.

We're grateful to everyone who joined us today! Your participation made the conversations richer. Don't forget to share your experiences and takeaways on social media!
