It seems the building is owned by a strong APC steward in Lagos, probably the Bullion van owner.
Pathetic

Is that why your policemen didn't allow people to rescue the victims on time?
Bro, have you seen how untrained people "rescue" people at disaster scenes in Nigeria? Many people have died from these so-called rescues simply because of poor handling. Someone with a broken neck or spine could be dragged like a small generator and bundled into the back seat of a car in the name of rescue

I am just laughing since when I heard that the building has no approval.

Majority of the people speaking have no idea of who Femi Fourscore Osibona is.

He would never be involved in cutting corner's or building without approval.
Kindly tell us what you know

I don't believe there's any special training given to those people. This is Nigeria!

Contrast that to delaying people untimely... Some needs to breathe but have something huge on their chest and thus would gas out and die.

you guys that take any news you see and hear as true will keep getting disappointed by the government. But you too should have known that the government will not say anything concerning the collapse building immediately. Those who dish out fake news gave it to you and when government said the real thing they still turn it around and you still believe the lies they tell you. One day you will read your obituary on social media and you will still believe it

palms were greased, when will the folks in power just sit up and say the current setup isn't working anymore ? huh

you would rather risk everything, just so you can line your own pockets? Given this building was in Ikoyi, even the elites could have been in those buildings had they been completed

Fools

Pressure from people in Abuja. undecided undecided undecided
I know no heads will roll for that building collapse and live lost, because the owner is a brother to one of Osinbajo’s SA.
I pity the poor souls lost their lives.
thought the owner was inside the building when it collapsed?

People need special training to be first responders. For example, sometimes it's best to leave the knife in place when someone has been stabbed until a trained medic can safely remove it and control bleeding. How many people in the streets know how to stop bleeding? Most of the rescue at accident scenes like this actually kill the victims than give them a chance at survival

"The approval was done about three years ago, it is not something new, it is the construction that failed apparently from what we can see."

Corrupt and incompetent Commissioners of the Lagos State government should be held responsible for the tragedies of the collapsed buildings in Ikoyi and Lekki.
The following should be sacked immediately:
Commissioner of of the Lagos State Ministry of Works and Infrastructure;
Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development;
Officers of the Lagos State Building Control Agency and the Lagos State Physical Planning Permit Authority.
