The ground floor was the crèche/KG.
The third floor was the primary school

First and second floors were residential.

May the dead RIP

See before and after of the location

Rip to the young souls... Heaven awaits you all

Agege bread is ten times stronger than that building...soft touch.

God...Please save your children

Why do I have the feelings that the initial plan and foundation of that building was not actually for 3 storey.

How can a school be in a top floor building of this nature? Have you heard of resonance and forced vibrations? Children following a particular rhythm can cause resonance!

Some Nigerians can be so foolish, how can the rescue team save the children now, jobless youth, just imagine crowd.

Nigeria shaaaa! Like someone said, Nigeria is its own natural disaster. A lot of the tragedies experienced in this cowntry are purely avoidable, man-made, unforced errors that we end up suffering for due to wicked leadership and perpetually compromised regulatory authorities/systems. What a shame!

The foundation of that building is not for 3 storey. Why put kids on the 3rd floor?


Most times, i select the kind of building i enter whenever I'm in Lagos. It's in Lagos you see houses built by great great great grandfathers handed over from generation to generation. Different landlords at different times. They hardly renovate the houses.


RIP to the Innocent kids

Those other two buildings standing there look frail. God help us.

Naija, we don't really care.

may their soul rest in peace . .
lemme teach nairaland members as a practicing civil engineer..
this building was built with a design to serve as a residential building but was converted to a school..
the implications is that the live loads has been increased from the designed loads..
that is why the building was cancelled..
so the people who went ahead to allow such conversion of purpose for the building should be brought to book.
in such cases the civil engineer is exonerated

God save us all in this country

CAPSLOCKED:


WE DO THINGS THE WRONG WAYS IN THIS COUNTRY AND WHEN WE'RE SCREWED, WE BLAME DEVIL OR VILLAGE PEOPLE FOR THE MISFORTUNES, OR ASSUME IT'S GOD'S PLAN.

Who gave approval for that building? Are the people in government who gave approval for that building going to be punished? No! Are the authorities not supposed to do their work by assessing buildings to know if they are structurally defective and order for demolition? The idiots are always waiting for one calamity to happen before they make small noise and thereafter they go to sleep again.

Personality, I can use my eyes to see 'fake' storey buildings everywhere in Lagos here.

Useless country

Even those building beside it look collapse able

Dem go use paint cover house wey no strong

Someone should lose his job for overturning decision to demolish that building

ignis:
God...Please save your children

I dont know when God started holding buildings firm

Instead of channelling your point towards emergency measures to be taken, you busy begging your imaginations

Just imagine how cruel people could be in this country.Heaven help those that help themselves. How can you put children in such a weak and defected structure with a penthouse!!

Looking at the buildings around, they are also disaster about to happen!

Eyah

Rip in peace! Lagos buildings like collapsing upandan

Just imagine the Crèche kids under a 3-storey building rubble. Why are we so wicked. Innocent kids gone

so many dilapidated buildings on Lagos Island.... Lagos State Government come to our rescue.

Oga, no be any resonance, rhythm and disproportionate collapse cause this one..

Building was weak, finish !

That building looks ok but i suspect vibration n resonance effect of the numerous children at the top floor can cause the collaspe. Rest in peace to those we lost.
