So painful and unfortunate,
Condolences to the Families of the Deceased.

The response towards that Disaster seems too slow.
All Hands should be on deck to rescue alive as many as possible .

Lastly and Most Important! Anyone could be taken away anywhere and anytime!
It is Important to Live this life in the Conciousness of your Eternity.

Heaven and Hell are Real!
There is no Repentance in the Grave.
Mercy Expires at Death.
A Genuie relationship with JESUS Christ is the Only way to Eternal life.

It means that the premises was fully occupied as of the time the building collapsed. Plastering laborer's, food sellers/ogogoro might've been involved. Anyway it's a sad thing that such poor structural work was done. Waste of lives and resources.
Beg the same developer to use that money & build 21 hospital beds in his community that won't cost more than 15m; then boom you will hear something like am not in the govt of any form..
Reminds me of when I was building , my engineer(tribe withheld) was so quack that even as I'm not an engineer I detected some foul play, the mixture of my cement was so Sandy tht I stopped the work. He was so furious and left the site that he is not building, that was my salvation. The next day I sent for a letter of termination of contract asap. He started acting cold and hiding. I took my PA and went to his office, and demanded he sign the goddam papers or else we'll deal with him in the office right their. He signed it and that's how I built a massive duplex at peace. You see don't be decieved that you cant achieve the best quality. Forget cost and embrace durability.

No vex, Ndo, Ema Binu, Ka Yankuri, Doh, Mbok, Sorry...Any one u fall in pls accept it.

So sad ...May their souls rest in peace..


Properties owners who engaged services of professionals on drawing Plans which were approved by relevant government agencies after proper vetting......and then turn back on implementing what was approved, engaged developers who connived with them to do something contrary to the plan approved, and also Government field monitoring team who saw these abnormalities when constructions are ongoing and looked away Because bribe is involved....

This is exactly what the consequences of your actions can turn out to be when it backfires..

Lose of innocent souls ....time, resources and all....ALL FORMS OF LOSES!!!

I believe one of the major reasons why the dead toll is high is because of the response team, they are too slow and lack important tools to do the job effectively.

Re: Ikoyi Building Collapse: Death Toll Rises To 36 by RealAdewole(m): 10:49am On Nov 04, 2021
1. Non existence or unqualified emergency workers.

2. Inadequate emergency workers

3. Lack of training and retraining of emergency workers.

4. Lack of necessary emergency tools

5. Outdated/incompatible emergency tools

6. Inability to operate available tools by emergency workers...

these are some of the reasons why the death toll will not stop increasing.

the time i was following IDF back to back the way they train their emergency response unit alone is jaw dropping...

When they say the cause of building collapse is substandard building materials, what do they mean? Is it that the cement, rod, sand, or stone is substandard? If it is the cement, why not say Dangote cement or BUA is substandard?


And I use to think that high rising buildings are constructed using mostly steels and not concrete pillers. Anyway I am not an engineer, so I don't know much about that.

This is due to systemic failure and now innocent people paid with their lives. Mere looking for what to eat in Nigeria seemed to be a crime. May God protect us all. Give your life to Christ. No body is safe!
