On the 5th of November, there were volcanic eruptions in Mkomon District, Kwande Local Government Area, Benue State, Nigeria. A border community to Cameroun.[Nigeria's only volcano is located on the Cameroon line, a tectonic fault which stretches to Sao Tome and Principe, off the west coast of Africa].
The eruptions claimed the life of a young boy(may his soul rest in peace) and destroyed properties worth millions of naira.
Saturday Sun gathered that the tragedy occurred while residents of the community were attending the annual thanksgiving service of the local church.
A Terzungwer Iorhemen, a member of the community disclosed that the vibrations they had noticed in the mountain were followed by the eruption of lava from the mountain covering wells, streams, trees and houses in the area, leaving residents with no other option than to flee for their lives.
