Many
residents of Sambang Dagi in Jaba Local Government Area of Kaduna State
have been displaced as a result of another earth tremor witnessed in
the area in the early hours of monday.
The incident occurred barely 24 hours after the first tremor was reported at Nok village about 20 kilometres away from Sambang.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN)
reported that the second vibration occurred around 4a.m yesterday,
leaving shocked residents scampering for safety.
It was not immediately clear whether there were casualties.
Earlier, the state government had in a statement urged residents of the affected communities to remain calm.
The government last Sunday appealed for
calm, and sympathised with the residents of Kwoi in Jaba Local
Government Area, following the first tremor.
The government said in a statement
signed by Samuel Aruwan, the Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to
the State Governor Nasir el-Rufai, that it had made a formal report to
the appropriate authorities to investigate the development.
