Gerima Mustafa walked for 644KM from Kampala to Nairobi in 19 days to raise awareness of the challenges facing the Shea nut tree (Butryospemum parkii) in Northern Uganda. The trees are currently being sold for only 1 USD to be burnt into charcoal hence driving the tree into an eminent extinction in spite of its many benefits.
Shea nut tree nuts when added value can produce vegetable oil, the high allantoic content in the butter makes a useful base for pharmaceutical prepaeations, the butter is used to make soap, lotions, sunscreen among many other products.
Gerima has shown the world that trees too need a voice and each one of us can do something to address the various environmental challenges facing the world today.
