A lecturer from the Department of Psychology at the University of Lagos, Dr Chima Okoro, says climate change contributes to the rise of psychological trauma in the country.

Speaking on the topic ‘Climate Change and Trauma: Metal Health Challenges in a Rapidly Changing World’ at the 2025 Trauma International Community of Practice organised by the Bible Society of Nigeria in Lagos on Wednesday and Thursday, February 18-19, 2025, Okoro noted that studies had shown that increasing temperature affects behaviour, leads to malnourishment and it is associated with increasing suicide.
