This is the consequence of exam malpractices in schools where we end up producing fake professionals.

The structures set up by the whites in Lagos years back are still standing.

This fixation with skin colour is racism without realizing it, and it happens rather too frequently around here. Just call them British, which is what they were and are. I mean Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther was one of the very energetic colonizers and he was darker than most of us on this forum.

Thank you prowess Engineering for this clarity. I respect your professionalism and thank God for the documentation.

I am so happy that there are still engineering firms who will not sell their integrity even for gold.

It is glaring that the covetousness of the client has led to the collapse of the building.

With this letter, it is evident that the building has shown some sign of failure in the early stage before the eventual collapse.

When everyone does right, everything will surely go right.


This is what most client are doing now and I had gladly dump them as I cannot and shall not compromise my standards.

You might as well tell your people to never live in Yoruba communities coz they are 'wacks' as you claim.And it is you fool and your idiot,lazy ancestors and no-life future generations that will be rushing to Lagos in search of a better life. I dunno why most of you Iyamiris are just senseless with reasoning clouded by hate and shear bigotry.You will continue to wail and die in your Terrorism-bedevilled region.I'm sure your brain has been infected with the terminal IPOBian disease type 2 and sadly it has no cure for now.

You're talking rubbish abeg. Most of Dubai with tall buildings especially the marinas and waterfront are reclaimed land just like Lagos Island.

The letter clearly stated what caused the building to collapse but you didn't read rather, you're rushing to type rubbish.

Exactly ... in the business world acknowledgement copy is sacrosanct.

I have been reading all these comments on acknowledgement but we have closed our eyes to the fact that sometimes recipients blatantly refuse to even accept letters directed to them. Available options will be to either resend through courier or follow through by conduct (refusing to continue to work on the project in this instance). In anycase, prowess has claimed it discontinued this relationship, I have no other proof to disbelieve them until the property owners provide a different evidence perhaps by subsequent payments made or other correspondences with Prowess. I guess we are so fraudulent in this country that even a good and well intended move is prone to suspicion and misinterpretation. I hope the truth gets established.

You're correct.

However, there has been no refutation whatsoever of the said letter or its claims. Therefore, until then I am inclined to believe Prowess. Also, keep in mind that the Acknowledgement Copy you ask about is very likely chilling in a file somewhere, probably reserved for more serious uses such as litigation, etc.

The receiver of the correspondence (in this case the property developer) will acknowledge receipt of a photocopy or duplicate of the original rather than his own copy.

1st query on the purported letter... Was the letter not enveloped? I can print a letter today and backdateto 2016 sef.

Secondly, Was the letter nit delivered to the client?

Really unfortunate. Smart move from the construction company to protect their integrity. I know that building very well near Lafarge Holcim office on Gerrard. It's been uncompleted for a while and I remember I used to admire it from afar as it was going to be the tallest building in that Ikoyi axis.

This is really terrible. Worked had stopped on the building for a while so it's not like activities were ongoing there on a daily basis. How the collapse then happened on the day a lot of people were present was really an unfortunate luck. Could it also be that the extra load of 50 people unbalanced the already weak structure
I used to focus my eyes on the building and admire the workers on scaffolding.it was a shock when I saw the pics now shocked

I live on 3 storey building in Kaduna which was built over forty years ago on marshy land. I cannot find a crack on that building, either surface or foundation.

My investigation, using my experience as an engineer, revealed that what was used to build its foundation could be used to build a two-storey building. The owner sold it when he was leaving town.

Other buildings that were built at the same time with it have all sunk and going for auction at less than the value but this one stood.

It is obvious that the owners of this property intended at all times to cut corners, putting profit before integrity and risk of losing human lives.

As far as I am concerned, this man should be made to face the law.
