The President has vowed to prosecute anyone found culpable in the recent building

collapses in the country especially that of Lagos State.

President Buhari added that these occurrences have been as a result of professional

negligence and therefore, those responsible will have to face the law.

This was noted by him upon receiving the leadership of the Nigerian Institute of

Quantity Surveyors at the Presidential Villa on Tuesday.



President Buhari stressed the need to adhere strictly to quality standards in

construction projects and avoid cutting corners in order to prevent such

unfortunate incidents, resulting in the loss of lives.

Earlier today Tuesday, the Federal Government had inaugurated an inter-ministerial

committee on collapsed buildings as part of its commitment to finding a permanent solution to the menace.

Speaking at the inauguration ceremony in Abuja, the Minister of Science and Technology,

Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu, said that the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari is

determined to do everything that is humanly possible to stop building collapses because of its toll on human life.

The committee, which has two weeks to complete its tasks is headed by the Acting Director

General of the Nigerian Building And Road Research Institute, Professor Samson Duna.
