Abstract : This paper delves into the comprehensive impact of climate change in Nigeria, emphasising the critical role of Internet of Things (IoT) technology in formulating mitigation and adaptation strategies. It highlights the significant threats climate change poses to Nigeria's ecological balance, economy, and societal structure, including altered temperature patterns, more frequent extreme weather events, and ramifications for agriculture, water supply, and health. It underscores the urgency for effective responses to protect the nation's welfare and economic integrity. The study showcases the potential of IoT technology as a pivotal tool in crafting innovative responses to climate change challenges. It demonstrates how IoT can bolster Nigeria's resilience through enhanced agricultural methods, better management of water resources, and more efficient energy utilisation. IoT devices' real-time data gathering and analytical prowess facilitate precise environmental monitoring, timely disaster warnings, and resource optimisation. The discussion extends to mitigation tactics like shifting towards renewable energy, improving energy efficiency, and sustainable land use, alongside adaptation strategies that include building climate- resilient structures, advocating for water conservation, and applying climate-smart agricultural practices to safeguard food security. Advocating for a cooperative strategy that integrates efforts from the government, private sector, academia, and communities, the paper stresses the importance of incorporating IoT solutions into national climate action and development strategies for a unified and robust approach to climate-related challenges. It concludes with a roadmap for the future, proposing policy reforms, investments in IoT infrastructure, skill development, and heightened public awareness as essential moves towards a sustainable, climate-resilient Nigeria. By strategically deploying IoT technologies, Nigeria can mitigate the detrimental impacts of climate change and tap into new avenues for economic and environmental prosperity.
