"Lagos is a megacity with 15 million people, half of them at two meters (6 ft) above sea level, and that puts them at risk as hardly any other big city in the world," Stefan Cramer, Nigeria director of Germany's Heinrich Boll Foundation think-tank and an adviser to the Nigerian government on climate change, was quoted by Reuters to have explained.
Cramer, speaking at the launch of a Nigerian documentary on climate change, said most scientists predicted sea levels would rise by one metre over the next 50 years or so.

“In 50 years with a one-metre sea level rise, two million, three million people would be homeless, By the end of the century we would have two metres and by that stage Lagos is gone as we know it,” he told Reuters.

You are WARNED but like in Noah's Arc many did not listen!

Are you this ignorant, is this the first you are getting this news?
Or, do you need to be geologist to know that there's a possibility of that?

If the sea level begin to rise, ppl will migrate. Who told the guy that ppl  are trees. Lagosians will just back their little belongings and move; move to Jigawa or Yobe. Land de there.

[size=17pt]Tsunami may soon hit Nigeria[/size]

Idowu Samuel, Abuja - 28.07.2008

AN environmentalist, Dr. Ephraim Iroakazi, has warned about the possibility of advanced flashed flooding, otherwise known as tsunami, occurring in the country, stressing that the signs had started emerging.
Iroakazi, who said this in Abuja at the weekend, added that the Federal Government should begin to take cognisance of the early signs of possible outbreak of tsunami, most especially in Lagos State, hence early preparations towards containing the natural disaster was necessary.The environmentalist, who was once the Chief Executive of Abia State Environmental Protection Agency, said the current mild flooding being experienced in Lagos with the increasing erosion of the ocean in the state was a sign that Nigeria was prone to the natural disaster.Though he did not give a specific time when it would break out in the country, he said the possibility was real, having been noted by both foreign and local experts, a reason he said early warning signs should not be ignored.
Iroakazi said this after receiving a development merit award from a non-governmental organisation at the Sheraton Hotels and Towers, Abuja.About 180 Nigerians bagged different categories of award during the 8th Development in Nigeria Merit Award night, in recognition of their contributions to the progress and development of the country.

foolish talk

And if I tell u I'm a geologist? Idiot, my comment was just to provoke discussion on the topic which I have succeeded in doing. Why do u wanna pick a fight with some1 way smarter than u are? Ignoramus!

Lol. . . have been able to provoke the discussion? Whichever way, just carry go.
Professional mumu.

nuzo:

Whichever way, just carry go.

. . . . . . That's how they usually shy away.

No worries here. Whenever I visit Lagos in the future, my chauffeur will be detailed to carry my newly waxed surf-board wherever I go, so that I will be ready at a moment's notice when the Big Wave looms on the horizon.

Work is for wimps who don't know how to surf.

The issue with this post is that Nigeria is not near any fault line so we cant have earthquakes or tsunamis

By the Special Grace Of Almighty Allah Your Prediction will not come to Pass. Lagos will never witness a Tsunami By God's Grace. It will never Happen.

Why is NL so fool of ignorant and illiterate folks?


When was the last time Tsunami transpired in the Atlantic Ocean? Sometimes I wonder about the sanity of many people on NL.

Tsunami may soon hit Nigeria

So Fashola had at least 3 years notice?

And yet he failed so woefully.

@ Imax_tm & eko Ile,

Thnx for ur informed observations.

D so called doctor is stvpid and fake. Is he not supposed to understand d mechanics of tsunami as a ph.d holder environmentalist? Where is d faultline for d underwater earthquake to occur around d gulf of guinea, bights of Benin and biafra? Olodo rabata doctor. only God ones if d man knows different between monsoon rain, typhoon and tsunami.

D only case dt can generate a tsunami along Nigerian coastline is d artificially induced type wt nukes, otherwise d probability is very distant.

It is good to be a hinterland people. 

Why fight over access to the sea, when the sea is coming to us?
