Coren will look into this matter and take immediate actions. The rate of substandard materials in construction, as well as actions of unqualified persons as engineers is still alarming 1 Like |

I'm not a professional in building but mere looking the debris, it seems that sand is more than cement. I might be wrong though ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Igor33:They are not useless but corruption in all sectors of Nigerian society. You get a contract of a certain amount. Almost everything would be given to government officials, omonile, and other miscreants in the society. So how much do you think would be left for quality work? |

Another Peter OBI version in CALABAR. Because Engineer charge you for the project you say you can do it yourself that Engineer money can go a long way for the project (you want to save cost) It is not the first house you built you have the experience more than some Engineer. Take the consequences for your incompetency. I come in peace |

What is the nonsense about concealing his name and that of his hotel instead of full disclosure so that the hotel can be evacuated immediately and shut down pending full investigation, to save lives. This is a state of emergency and the powers of the state should supercede any privacy laws.... ![]() |

There's a difference between an Engr and an Engineer. An Engr is someone who attains certain level of education, tested and registered by COREN, with COREN reg. number, seal and practicing license. Always give your building projects to a registered civil Engr no matter how small the project is to avoid stories like this. Registered Engr will ensure proper soil test, quality materials and proper supervision because his/her career is at stake in case of a collapse. If you check well, less than 5% of collapsed buildings are supervised by an Engr. Note, Only COREN registered Engr use 'Engr' before their names, but every bricklayer, every carpenter, every electrician, every plumber is an engineer. 1 Like |

CondenseMilk:since the blocks look like sawdust, imagine what they used for the pillars, there may be not enough rods and granite.An engineer building a house is like a medical doctor, they can save or destroy lives. |

You people are always blaming the engineer, do you try to ascertain the level of fake building materials import into the country? What about the monopoly of producing a cement, since the federal government give Danguote the sole monopoly of producing cement, do you care to ascertain the quality of the cement, what about other things import into the country uncheck |
