A partial solar eclipse is anticipated to
occur in most states of Nigeria at about
noon today. The National Space Research
and Development Agency (NASRDA) made
the prediction at a press conference held in
Abuja over the weekend.
The director-general of the agency, Prof.
Seidu Mohammed, described eclipse as a
natural astronomical event with no
significant negative implication, and urged
Nigerians to remain calm as the eclipse will
not hinder normal activities.
His words: “Nigeria is within the penumbra
region where you’ll have partial eclipse on
November 3, 2013. As an astronomical
agency, we have taken time to inform
Nigerians of the eclipse, which will take
place on Sunday, because it is our duty to
keep the nation informed of such
developments. We urge Nigerians to remain
calm as there is no need to panic.
“November 3rd will be like any other day; it
will not hinder signal from the satellite, so
mobile signal will not be affected, our
internet and other facilities will be
operating and it will not even affect flights;
nothing out of the ordinary is expected to
occur apart from a shadow bend which will
be felt just at the time we predicted.
We have predicted the starting time and
when it will end, which is around 4pm in
most cities.”
Speaking in the same vein, the director,
centre for basic space science, University of
Nigeria, Nsukka, Prof. Fidelis Opara,
explained that an eclipse is an astronomical
event that occurs when an astronomical
object is temporarily obscured, either by
passing into the shadow of another body or
by having another body pass between it and
the viewer as seen from the earth
