Fifty people were reportedly inside the building when it caved in.

At least three corpses were recovered from the rubbles of a 21-storey building that collapsed in Lagos on Monday.

Daily Trust

”Three persons have been brought out alive so far. We don’t know how many are still trapped. Meanwhile, we are moving in the Military to take over operations because it is beyond the capacity of the civil operators.

“We don’t want it to be like the Synagogue case where it took seven to eight days”.

VANGUARD

South West Coordinator of the NEMA, Mr Ibrahim Farinloye, told Vanguard that efforts were being made to invite the Military to take over the operation.

Lagos engineers need to pay more attention to the kinds of material quality they use in building .. all they think about is money money money .. it’s not nice .. they should provide quality building… and not just fake .. the foundation I guess wasn’t solid enough to hold what came on top …

Damn

Very unfortunate
I hope they prosecute the contractors, owners , state inspection team etc
Well they are well placed individuals
They are saints

What can be the cause of the collapse? Substandard materials, cutting corners, wrong man handling the job or what?

I pray the rest makes it out alive.

In the US, all artisans have their certificates hence a mason man is mason man and not someone that thinks he can do it.

A carpenter is trained to do so and not all these untrained carpenters in Nigeria.

Using untrained individuals can cause this catastrophe.
