When is it projected to land? Prayerfully it lands on the sea.

Honestey:
I know some NAME WITHHELD already praying for this to truly happen but God will disappoint everyone of our enemies. The asteroid shall miss the earth entirely by God's grace.

Time to move to South east for safety reasons

No worry dem go intercept am

So Nigerian space agency was sleeping that NASA has to be the one to notice the asteroid.

Waste of yearly allocations

The odds of asteroid 2024 YR4 colliding with Earth have surged, reaching a historic probability threshold that has raised concerns among scientists and global space agencies. According to NASA’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), the asteroid now has a 1 in 32 (3.1%) chance of impact, a sharp increase from earlier predictions.

Initially discovered in December 2024, its impact probability was 1.2% (1 in 83) before doubling to[b] 2.3% on February 7[/b], then rising to 2.6% earlier this week, and now hitting its highest recorded figure. These odds make 2024 YR4 the most dangerous asteroid currently tracked, surpassing even the 2004 predictions for Apophis, which had a 2.7% chance of striking Earth before later calculations ruled it out.



Lagos at Risk if Asteroid Strikes

Measuring between 131 and 295 feet in diameter, YR4 is large enough to generate an 8-megaton explosion, equivalent to 500 times the power of the Hiroshima atomic bomb.

Among the major cities in the asteroid’s projected trajectory is Lagos, Nigeria, one of the world’s most densely populated urban centers. With over 20 million residents, an impact on Lagos Island, Ikeja, or Victoria Island could result in catastrophic destruction, wiping out entire districts and severely affecting surrounding areas.



No Immediate Cause for Panic—Yet

Despite the alarming statistics, scientists urge the public not to panic.



Experts predict that the impact probability may continue to rise before eventually dropping to zero, as has been the case with many previously tracked asteroids.

To refine the risk assessment, NASA and the ESA will deploy the James Webb Space Telescope, using its infrared instruments to accurately measure the asteroid’s size and determine its exact trajectory.

The ESA confirmed that NASA, ESA, and other space agencies will analyze this data to assess the risk and prepare any necessary response measures.

… still resulting in a tsunami like devastation. Either ways Lagos is on a path to destruction. Hopefully the real builders of Lagos will rebuild.

PS: that fucking stone asteroid better not deviate anywhere near my Abeokuta Ogun State.

Any info you get on it will be from whyte people even if you hear info from your govt it is what whyte people has told them to say that they will say...

Nigeria Space Agency did not notice the asteriod but whyte people noticed it.. that means the Nigerians Space Agency is a useless agency and it just waits for orders from whyte people before it says anything..

it is D:angote refinery they are targeting.. they want to use nuclear bom:bs on Lagos.

It will never happen
Many of these kind of projections, yet none has materialized
