An initiative by an environmental activist Temitope Okunnu saw ‘eco-friendly’ Christmas trees made out of thousands of plastic bottles and used tyres set up in Lagos, footage from Friday showed. Temitope Okunno environmentalist and creative mind behind the project said, “we need everybody to feel happy, to feel the spirit of Christmas and in doing this we have also decided to use the waste materials we find around us. The PET bottles and the tyres.” One of the recyclers said, “I was impressed that is why I contributed more bottles. I saw what she did and decided to give more support.” The initiative was supported by the Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) and the Lagos State Parks and Gardens Agency (LASPARK).

Surprising. I thought Africans wouldn't celebrate a Judeo Christian holiday that has origins in Europe. Merry Christmas!
That's very lovely and clever! It makes me want to see what other holiday and celebration decoration can be made with old bottles.
Please, Africans quickly regain your identity and sovereignty as the world needs you desperately. Do this for the future generations as what exists isn't sustainable and as far from what is best for mankind based on your rich history and contribution.
Christmas is Ahh Lie… ALL Of the So'Called Holidays are Made up & Really About DEVIL WORSHIP & RITUALS. Look up the True Orgins of them All…
I applaud Lagos for setting the example to the rest of the world!
their religions🤦🏾♂️
Very resourceful 👏🏽👏🏽 but let's hope Africa moves away completely from plastic bottles in the future 👊🏽
This is genius. Very creative. I love it.
Brothers and sisters on motherland.
Please say the word (Christmas) in your traditional or local language with out using English pronounciations or calling it in its English pronounciations. If you cannot then please abandon a this paganism as it isn't even in your tribe traditions or culture. Thank me later!
How does Xmas/Santa Claus and elves fit with any tribe in the motherland? When did Christmas become a holiday in Africa? This thang is too deep for me and very sad watching from America tbh
Too beautiful.. Well done . 🎉✨💖
We create so much unnecessary waste
Seriously stop it yall worshipping pagan satanic holidays!
Roman pagans first introduced the holiday of Saturnalia, a week long period of lawlessness celebrated between December 17-25. … War was banned; executions were suspended; slaves were liberated; and all persons were considered equal for the duration of holiday.
Jeremiah 10:2-5
[2]Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.
[3]For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
[4]They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
[5]They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.
This is creative, brilliant and Eco-friendly. It’s so beautiful this idea is coming from Africa. We can change the world 🌍. Kudos and Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
dislike btw
The northern kingdom is obsessed with pagan beliefs, idol worship and western ideas. Christmas is a waste of energy
We need to stop celebrating this pagan religion and holiday and embrace our African spirituality. Most High we pray open our spiritual eyes.
Please do not start adopting western traditions Please be more creative and find other ways to recycle the rubbish.
yeah, this is bound to go viral, everyone will want a Christmas tree made from trash, just wait till it hits TikTok and them influencers get the wind of it.
omg, they invented something down in Africa, good job, fellas, let's just hope it catches on so it means something, high time you showed them white people they're not the only ones inventing stuff.
I love this type of Christmas tree
U brave women.
This is non sense! Afrikans shouldnt embrace this white mans holiday

NOTE: a GOOD example was yet again proven here with Africans! How as a TEAM and in LIKE MIND, they can achieve so much together! …Where many would just see craps of waste turned into something of sentimental Value, WE SEE that SAME ENERGY of Commitment and Dedication as a Group, be Directed towards making BRICKS and Morter to BUILD Homes and Schools and more! ALL without Government meddling! But instead done solely by the combined WILL OF THE AFRICAN CITIZENS! GOD we wish we were there to help with this project and more, and that we soon will!🤨 …Africans are all they ever needed from the very beginning!👍
I love the idea but that tree represents the pine trees of cold Europe ( for caucazoid people) it has nothing to do with Africa.. period.
I bet you America will copy this.
The dollar bill is loaded with pagan symbolism, yet nobody is throwing it in the streets.
Why?
Could it be that people are also aware of it's grater value?
Let my people think.
Merry Christmas.
I like what they are doing cleaning up the streets. I don't celebrate Christmas now that I am aware of the truth.
