Earthquake events in Nigeria

The first widely reported occurrence of an earth tremor in Nigeria was in 1933. Other events were reported in 1939, 1964, 1984, 1990, 1994, 1997, 2000 and 2006.

The primary reason for the low occurrence of earthquakes in Nigeria is due to its location on the African continental plate, which is responsible for the tectonic activity.

Nigeria’s capital, Abuja, often experiences tremors.

In the same vein, residents of a town in Oyo state, Saki, do witness earth tremors.
