Emergency responders recover two bodies at Lagos building collapse.

Emergency responders have recovered two dead bodies from the rubbles of a seven-storey building that collapsed in the early hours of Sunday in #Lekki, Lagos State.

So bad!

Praying that others will be found safe and alive

Emergency Rescue Workers are Amazing

Can't imagine digging up dead bodies under loads of concrete.
That's why i respect Men. Una strong

With the rate at which buildings are collapsing in Lagos state, by 2050 almost all the three storey and above building erected in Lagos will have completely collapsed.

This is saddening

May their souls RIP.

Watch video of the collapsed building here

Building houses with uneducated bricklayers

No engineers and technicians should stop quick

Engineering is a calculative procedure that requires systematic principles not just laying blocks


See thoss fools there
How is tinubu responsible for building collapse

Damnnn niggar
Too bad

Rip

[b]May God help the victims[l

What's the update on all the previous cases of building collapse?

Lekki Gardens
Synagogue of all Nations
The Ikoyi building

There should be stringent penalties on the builders and public servants for the acts of commission and omission.

Afonja Bricklayers Association (ABA) made building materials is deadlier than malaria.

This country na wa

Lekki
7 storey
How much did they acquire that land for such project?

I am sure BATists will try to distance themselves from this unfortunate incident. They will blame it on PDP 16years rule

The menace of building collapse in Nigeria is very alarming and appalling. Building collapse in Nigeria has become the norms and they are easily swept under the carpet whenever it occurs. It is rather unfortunate that both human and economic loss we record each time there is a failure or building collapse is rather humongous. There is also a lot of blame game among professional stakeholders in the industry once failure or collapse of building occur and unfortunately, there is no proper scientific investigation in Nigeria to ascertain the cause of failure or collapse as the case may be in order to avoid any future occurrence. After review, it was discovered that building materials such as reinforcing steel, cement, sand, granite, sandcrete blocks and concrete play huge important role in either the collapse or stability of buildings in Nigeria. The roles of these materials are so vital that they contribute immensely to the collapse of buildings. It was concluded that 10-25% of buildings that collapse in Nigeria are as a result of the use of poor quality building materials

So bad rip to them. And in the former post about this building collapse, some people were saying it’s an old building etc

Rip to them.
Someone above said “the the emergency rescue team is trying and that’s why she respect men”
I love the statement but I know some ppl won’t like it, especially those claiming what a man can do a woman can do better.

All these people that build houses that collapse are really wicked. They don't want to hire professional builders because they want cheap things and cheap labour.

What do you expect when you just hire a local unqualified bricklayer to build such a structure.

Nigerians need to stop these cheap stuff mentality and start making use of professional services.

It's well

Just left there now. So sad

Hmmm

The Government needs to give the local government more authority to do periodic checks on buildings under construction.

A visible developmental project plan,materials inspection and also all safety measures should be in place.

Finally,I will recommend the government to ensure buildings are tested for structural damages at least every 5 or 10 years.

This will create more jobs and also protect the occupants.

Ok
