tonididdy: How many of us are in our right senses? See how you are talking as if you live in another country. If this right senses you speak of is everywhere, why is the country this way? Why does our country have the highest number of poor people in the world? Why are we rated as one of the most corrupt countries in the world? Are you a Nigerian? Was it not in this country we had planes crashing every other day under OBJ administration until something was done to that sector and we have not had one for over a decade now? |

Gideon23: My friend, as if you don't know how it works. Building inspectors come, meet you in the office, envelope exchange hands, they go away and you continue, business as usual. When late Sam Mbakwe built Concorde Hotel, it was built with reinforced concrete, not nonsense blocks. That place would need tons of TNT to go down, and the way they build things today, if a mosquito farts, the building goes down. 1 Like |

We have said it times without number to ENGAGE THE SERVICES OF A BUILDER, PREFERABLY A REGISTERED BUILDER whenever a building is to be built Professional encroachment is one of our challenges in the country and I don't think news like this can cease from springing up, the o nay antidote is PUTTING A SQUARE PEG IN A SQUARE HOLE i won't be surprised if the manager of that building production is a graduate of the department of Accountancy, or Electrical & Electronic Engineering, or Even Architecture or Quantity Surveying. Even Civil Engineering is still an Encroachment. Builders are licensed to Build. Civil Engineers are meant to do Structural Designs. Their Expertise is much more requested in Highway Construction AND NOT BUILDING CONSTRUCTION If anyone knows that he or she have an idea or the experience, let them go through the hurdles of the Academic Qualifications and the Professional Qualification Process. You can not see a Pharmacist or Dentist Opening a hospital. Neither can you see a Medical Doctor Selling or Dispensing drugs. Let the Federal Republic of Nigeria develop a policy that everybody should stick to his / her profession and Sanity will be restored in the Country Collapse here and there will be at the minimal zero. The building code is much more expected to address all these issues Build Wisely, Engage a Professional Builder |

That will be after TB Joshua's engineers case is concluded friday2011: The increased Building collapse we are experiencing is just another way of showing how failed this country is, quacks are responsible for building construction, road construction etc...because representatives of our government institutions sit in the office and eat bribes, while the so called NSE and coren are toothless only to collect levies and host convention. Everything is in a case of comatose, name one sector that is healthy. |

Manage is nt best idea in building Production / industries Having it in mind to build doesn't mean you have compromise standard! Remember building Economic management is also practices by a good and competent professional and this's one of practices by a Builders with that, we don't compromise standards. With little you have try an enagaged professionals to plan with either as full time or part time. Rather than engaging so call quack In other to save some cost. Don't just call baba bili ,baba tamedu.baba chichi Or calling some because he has bn in site with an Engrs .Stop dealing ordinary familiarity, Deal with competency.. Always do it with a professional to avoid wasting of LIFE and RESOURCES Bad construction can also kills as covid19 to avoid that, make sure you Engage professionals. Biztech consult. |

MetaPhysical: It's cheap materials. Mainly the economizing of cement used in making the blocks. Without enough cement the blocks are just like sand. If I ever want to build a multistory, the blocks will be made on site according th o the right specifications |

Its quite unfortunate that people have to die due to the ignorance of others. Its no coincidence that the number of collapsing buildings is on the rise. This is partly due to the wear and tear some of these buildings which have been built within the last 50 years. Thus exposing the mediocre execution of the contractor/s. Others can be attributed to pure shoddy workmanship as we have seen with some of the more recent buildings on this list. Please my brothers and sisters, do your due diligence before hiring people for your projects. This is beyond penny pinching. Lives can be saved. This is the best we can do considering government has refused to establish proper legislation to that effect. For your state of the art architecture plans, designs, renderings and even construction services. I strongly recommend Ripple Design and Construction.They are affordable and produce some of the best architecture designs, construction and engineering services in Nigeria at the moment. Visit the website for more information. Here are a few of their works! Stay safe guys..
