Thank God for your life. I heard a guy from here Abuja got contract for windows in that same building. His shop has been locked cos he went to Lagos with his boys to work, so sad. May our food not kill us.

Mehn, this is very ridiculous. Just imagining how will people survive this fall, see how the bricks are so compressed together, this is so serious. May the soul of the departed rest in perfect peace and the family, God grant them the heart to bear this irreparable lose.

It's obvious that standards were compromised. Imagine the pillars of a 21 floors looking like sugar cane sticks.

Nigeria has no respect for human lives.

He wanted a 360 degrees of Lagos but God has other plans...
The tower of babel story is a fable.

How the slabs pile up so perfectly like that still suprises me.
Is there no colums and beams supporting it? That should have created some spaces in between the slabs...
Tells you how shoddy the work was..

Just take a look at the basement pillars..

Those toothpicks were supposed to carry a 21 Storey building? angry

What sort of useless construction site will allow people carry block to 12th floor? Whatever happened to using crane?

This one sounds better compared to that man clainming that, his religion rescued him.

I actually wonder what would remain of the 2 buildings.

Would LASG approve anyone to proceed with developing them ?

Even if approval is given, Would anyone be confident enough to live there considering what happened to the third.
If them give you stay free let's assume Dem proceed with the building irrespective of the luxury, you go stay? Building that has taken 33 lives and already

Even if they complete it and rent it out for 50k, I’d rather stay in a mud house.

Did you give yourself life?
Did you buy your existence?
God gave everybody life.
And like the landlord of life, he has the right to take it when he wills.
If you have used your life well, you end up in heaven to enjoy with him.. And you will have NO REGRETS about ANYTHING!
That is what religion is.

Without prejudice, every established authority associated with this building from approval till date should be throughly investigated. This is just sheer wickedness. No be until you carry knife kill person.

The cocoa house has more than 23 floors and still standing erect till date.
The contractor and the quality control consultant to the project needs to be arrested and tried for manslaughter, substandard materials caused this disaster
