Lagos, Anambra, Kano, Delta, Others Witness Sun Eclipse by gistreporter: 8:02am On Sep 02, 2016
Some Nigerians, yesterday, enjoyed the occurrence of an eclipse of the sun as different states across the country witnessed the incident in different proportions.

While people living in the northern parts of the country, particularly, Kano, Zamfara and Plateau states witnessed the eclipse, some parts of the country recorded a very partial eclipse. Lagos state was one of such states.

Delta State reported witnessed partial eclipse at about 8.08 am yesterday in parts of Asaba, the state capital. In the places where the eclipse was observed, the moon appeared in the clouded sky in a ring-like object. It did not, however, arouse curiosity among residents who were indifferent to the occurrence.

Some parts of Lagos witnessed the eclipse around 8:35 am. Daylight was dimmed slightly, with the rest of the day cloudy.
It was different stories in the northern part of the country.

In Zamfara State, the eclipse was reportedly very pronounced. In Abuja, as early as 6:00 am, many residents, especially school children rushed to the Obasanjo Space Centre headquarters of National Space Research and Development Agency (NASRDA), along the Airport Road, to witness the natural phenomenon. A brief show of eclipse happened around 8:45 am, but it did not bring much darkness on the city and its environs.

NASRDA Director General, Prof Seidu Mohammed said those at the viewing centre were only able to watch the occurrence for less than five minutes “because it was covered by cloud.”
