6 States At The Risk Of Earthquake – Researchers Raise Alarm by Raph01(op): 11:04am On Jun 28, 2016

The Nigerian Association of Water-Well Drilling Rig Owners and Practitioners (AWDROP) has called on the Federal Government to take measures that could reduce the effects of earthquake as 6 states with land-ocean boundaries exist at the risk of possible earthquake.

AWDROP, at a press conference addressed by its National President, Mr. Michael Ale, lamented that lack of Underground Water Abstraction Regulation in Nigeria could easily induce earthquake and sea water intrusion, “hence the need for government to ensure strict compliance in the implementation of code of practice in borehole drilling” in the country.

Ale said his Association had been informed of the salt water intrusion affecting underground water usage and subsidence along the land-ocean boundaries in shoreline areas. The areas are:

1. Lagos

2. Port-Harcourt

3. Warri

4. Bayelsa

5. Cross River State

Meanwhile, researchers from the Department of Geology, Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, led by Dr Adepelumi Adekunle Abraham, had submitted in its report titled ‘Preliminary Assessment of Earth Tremor Occurrence in Shaki Area, Shaki West Local Government, Oyo State, indicating an impending ‘damaging earthquake’ in the next four years.

Shaki, Oyo state completes the list.

Re: 6 States At The Risk Of Earthquake – Researchers Raise Alarm by Nobody: 1:02pm On Jun 28, 2016

Hmmm... God really had a plan not giving Nigeria the terrain for such unfortunate events. He knew it would take us years to survive if we are to survive such catastrophy.

It takes minimum of 2 - 3 years to build a good road in Nigeria, now earthquake wants to destroy the ones we managed to build eventually.

God help us.

I hope the report is not used to wrap hot akara soon. But then, do i expect any action whatsover from govt officials in this part of the world? If anything, a new avenue of siphoning funds just presented itself.

God know saw if that kind thing happen here, Nigeria would become history.
