Real progress is rarely loud, but it is always intentional. One thing is clear the Energy industry will nolonger be defined by scale alone, but by how intelligently we operate. The future of Energy is not just digital. It is intelligent, safer, and purpose-driven leveraging AI.
What does safety leadership look like when indigenous companies step forward?
In this episode, Nnamdi Adimora, Assistant Manager, Occupational Safety, OER, shares his views on predictive safety systems and the need to harmonise safety culture across the energy industry in 2026.
Watch the next episode of The world in 2026.

The Wait is finally over!
After months of meticulous adjudication, with 163 entries received in the Children's Literature Genre, the Nigeria Prize for Literature announces the longlist of 11 as follows:
🌍More than half the global population are at high risk of experiencing an extreme weather event, such as floods, drought, cyclones, or heatwaves.
Most are poor or extremely poor, @WorldBank reports.
#ZeroClimateDisasters means addressing inequality.

Flood Early Warning ⚠️
Nigerian Meteorological Agency @nimetnigeria predicts heavy rainfall in 13 states between June 18-24.
Niger, Plateau, Benue, Kaduna, Taraba, Delta, Imo, Cross River, Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Bayelsa, Ekiti and Osun are predicted to experience heavy rainfall.
At 1°C of additional global warming, heat & humidity will stop 1 in 8 people in the tropics from working safely outside, with severe economic impacts, says @PGAFamilyFdn
Urgent actions are needed to reduce warming & to provide safe working conditions.

🧑🦯 Disasters impact everyone but have a disproportionate impact on persons with disabilities! In many cases, emergency response systems are unclear, making it difficult for persons with disabilities to evacuate, especially if they need assistance 👉 https://t.co/GDUWTT15ek
🌊Flood is a growing risk for coastal communities adapting to a changing climate. But unique local practices can offer opportunities to build resilience.
This @UNUEHS study shows how some African communities use traditional knowledges to predict floods

📈 💰Scaling up investments in disaster risk reduction is critical to protect development gains in a rapidly changing climate.
We need to move away from a short-term outlook to a think resilience approach that becomes mandatory in all investments. ➡️ https://t.co/vKIYxiZUkY
It's official! It's Doctor please!😁

Grateful for all the love and support from family and friends. God made it possible and to Him all the glory is ascribed🙏
Addressing loss and damage from climate change can draw on existing streams of resources related to disaster risk reduction (DRR), but there are gaps in coverage – and a need to strengthen and scale-up support.

📹 There is no such thing as a natural disaster, but disasters often follow natural hazards.
@UNUEHS & @_MCII_ Climate Risks Analytics expert, Eike Behre, explains it as part of the #Riskepedia video series.
This is how traditional knowledge can help us address modern challenges. Many regions in Africa grapple with severe water shortages. 🌍 The ancient "qanat system" can offer a sustainable solution by tapping into aquifers. 💧🤝
