They should deal with the contractor. They can build another house with the money gotten from your own stiil yet your own won't be finished.

Cutting corners just to make money while endangering ppls lives.

Anybody selling sub-standard goods=it won't be well for u
Anybody trying to economize while building a house for commercial use=it won't be well for u
Anybody that claims to be an engineer in building meanwhile the person has no or little experience about building a house=it won't be well for u

Finally may the soul of the deceased rest in peace and may God console their families....


FTC
Any government agency in charge of building standard who takes bribe instead of inspecting a building standard, it won't be well with them

this man call governor is funny, you are putting blames on people, what about your governments that encouraged substandard materials and refuse to provide external body to rescue the people that was trap before they give up their ghost.

As bad as this news is, I need to point out that not all Building collapse is caused by substandard materials.

Those who are knowledgeable about building structures and the interconnection between structural elements will understand that a building can still collapse if a single beam is unhooked/tied to a column.

If this structure was being built with substandard materials, it will collapse up to the ground floor, but it appears that, being a two-flat structure, only one half of the building was in distress as a possible result of poor connection between horizontal ties.

There are so many things that could go wrong, the engineer may not even be directly responsible but people under him.
I've seen this happen, but it always lands on the head of the contractor/engineer.

May God grant the families who lost their loved ones to this disaster the fortitude to bear the irreplaceable loss.
There was a day I asked my labourers to mix 11 headpans of sand and stone for a bag of cement only to come back an hour later and seeing these hips that are obviously more than the mixture, the color too was lighter gray and supposed to deem gray. I flared, they said the brother of the owner of the house asked them to mix it 20pans per bag, that that's how others mix and the houses hasn't collapsed either.
I left them to complete their work and when it was time to pay I asked them to go and meet the guy to pay them. I contacted the owner of the house and withdrew from the job.

Everything is on the engineer

Can’t the engineer or builder take a walk,is it by force to continue where you know that the client is buying sub standard materials or advising to do sub standard work in the name of cutting cost.....!!!
