Dr. Adepelumi is a renowned geophysicist and seimologist. He taught me as an adjunct lecturer in LAUTECH. Nigeria is located on the eastern part of the west African craton located precisely in Ghana. This shows that our country is not 100 percent seismically stable. The RRF model of the separation of the South America and Africa culminated in the formation of a failed arm of a rift zone, which formed the Benue trough (Benue state is located on the Mid-Benue trough). If this third arm of the rift had been successful, Africa would have been divided into 2. All the states mentioned apart from Shaki, Oyo state are located around this failed arm of the rift zone, which may be on the way to be reactivated. As for the Shaki area, it is located on the major pegmatitic belt of Nigeria that trends from SW-NE and are majorly mineralized. Pegmatites are formed when magma intrudes a fault, cools and solidifies. So it is possible that this may also be reactivated. So it is advisable that the FG sets up seismic and awareness monitoring group to inform people about this. These regions if not monitored may be consumed and lost to "TECTONISM"

WARRI, PH AND SHAKI MAY NOT BE STATES, BUT THEY REPRESENT THREE DIFFERENT STATES- DELTA, RIVERS, AND OYO STATES RESPECTIVELY.

I Don' t think its due to pegmatite formation. More studies need to be carried out. Let's not hastily conclude. But I trust their report will be ignored.

Imagine ignorant people talking about state and capital, instead of talking about saving lives that will be lost when the quake hits (cause it will).

Exactly because Africa is sitting on a single continental plate.
