The Federal Government, through the Nigerian Geological Survey Agency (NGSA) has addressed the recent earth tremors in parts of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

In a statement released on Wednesday, Professor Olusegun Ige, the Director-General of the NGSA, reassured residents that the tremors pose no threat.

The agency added that it has been monitoring the tremors since Friday, September 13.

According to Professor Ige, the NGSA recorded approximately 48 separate earthquake events, with both intensity and frequency increasing between 13 and 16 September.

Preliminary analysis indicated that the sources of the ground motions are less than 5 km from the monitoring station.

The NGSA team conducted on-the-spot assessments in the affected areas and concluded that the tremors resulted from accumulated stress along identified faults, releasing seismic energy.

Multiple epicentres were identified, primarily located northeast of the NGSA-5 Seismic Station around the Mpape axis.

NGSA’s boss clarified that the tremors’ intensities are weak to light, ranging from III to IV on the Modified Mercalli Scale, posing a very low-level threat.
