About Us

Meet Our Founder

Ajoke Muhammed, one of Nigeria's previous first ladies, is now dedicated to protecting indigenous flora, notably the West African country's numerous palm tree varieties. She began her career as a dental therapist. Her spouse raised fish, aquatic snakes, and birds, but she developed her own passion for nature after he died, when she moved into a new house with a garden.

What We Are

The Sarius Palmetum Botanical Garden is situated in a Maitama neighborhood. There are now over 1,000 different plant species, including approximately 450 palm species, in addition to those popular in Nigeria, such as the oil and coconut palm, and others like Bismarckia, golden, and royal palm.
