Abstract : Every day the Earth vibrate under our feet, the Earth is our home but we have not yet completely discovered the secrets it hides under its 100 km of crust and we do not know and cannot predict why, where and when it starts to quake. Everyday somewhere around the world dozens of Earthquakes occur, most of them being so small that we cannot even perceive but some are large and great depending on where they occur, they can cause very significant damage to both our lives and property. Earthquake monitoring of greater than or equals to four (4) Reikter scale was monitored for a period of five (5) months from August 2021 to December 2021 using ShakeNet software. A total of three thousand seven hundred and nine (3,709) earthquakes were recorded within this period.
