A three storey building under construction at Amansea, in Awka North local government area, has collapsed.

Correspondent Chibuzor Okoye who visited the scene reports that the building was completely reduced to rubbles.

Speaking to the Akelicious on the condition of anonymity, an eye witness revealed that the building collapsed due to the incompetence of the contractor handling the project, and the constant changing of construction engineers by the owner of the building who was said to be residing in Malaysia.
Akelicious also observed that the Awka Capital Territory Development Authority had on tenth of October this year gave a stop work order which was blatantly ignored.
All efforts to reach the wife of the owner of the building that was said to be living in Nnewi or any of the contractors proved abortive.
