Fadekemi Ajakaiye A leading conservation organisation, Nigerian Conservation Foundation (NCF) scaled up its advocacy for vultures with production of a documentary titled “Our Plights to Survive: Nigeria’s Vulture and Wildlife Trade Crisis” which was premiered on Wednesday, 24th March at Lekki Conservation Centre, Lagos. The documentary is aimed at intensifying NCF’s campaign on vulture conservation in Nigeria and the intricate link between vultures killing and illegal wildlife trade. The production is supported by United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and Egyptian Vulture New LIFE project. The documentary reveals how vultures are heavily traded as commodities in the wildlife market in the South-Western and Northern parts of Nigeria. It also shows threats to vultures emanating from poachers, wildlife traffickers, traditional medicine practitioners as well as many people who perceive the bird as ominous.
