The fact remains that tragedies like this would have been averted. In our communities there are hundreds of these still waiting to happen.
Istly, a school is not supposed to be located where there a commercial buildings, a school building ought to have a large play ground space .
2ndly, officials who are supposed to close down the school are either compromised . Even if they decide to close down the school ironically the people whom the government are trying to protect would still be the ones to chastise the government.

May God save the children and grant those dead eternal rest.

A 4 storey building just collapse in Itafaaji, Lagos Island.

There is a private school in that building and a lot of children are trapped in that building.

Some of the children are dead while some have been rescued. But a lot of children are still trapped inside the building.

Some parents have more than one child in the school, some have 2, some have up to 4.

The collapse was said to be as a result of a dredging that happen within the area that affected the building.

The Lagos state fire and emergency have reached the place and trying to rescue the children that are trapped.

These are images from the scene...

The annoying thing is that those LASBA see those building in Lagos Island but they turn blind eyes cos of the bribes they receive. Houses in Lagos Island especially at Ita Faaji, Agarawu, Idumota, are time bomb... The Lagos State Govt knew but they won't act.

So so sad
Including Adeniji, Onala, Obuneko etc. Lagos state government needs to act fast on those areas.

80 percent of the houses on the island are due for demolition. Playing tribalism instead of safety. The state government knows but turn blind eyes because na Yoruba man house. It is safer to save the good people of Lagos from man made disaster

Sometimes, we need to qestion the integrity of Lagos State Government. Playing politics of tribalism. Go and demolish those houses they all crash some day. Yoruba are competent with building substandard houses around Lagos. Traders in Orile selling iron are now Developer. people with no idea of how to build.

I'm not an ethnic bigot. But let's say the truth. Igbo people always build the most beautiful houses in lagos. Be it personal or apartment for rent.

Those kids under need very fresh air to even stand a chance of surviving. In a sane society, this place would have been cordoned off for the sake of ventilation. This jobless crowd should not be here. I even can not identify the exact building because of this crowd. Life in Nigeria is cheap.

My guy.

Look at the names you called. Do you think you can just walk into those places an flash the name of the Law into their faces. Before you say In the name......you are gone. ANd there is nothing nobody will do. Especially Ita Faaji. LASBA official get house for there sef.....so what are we saying.

Those houses are mad. You need to see the living conditions in that place. And people live there. To enter those buildings....sometimes i am afraid.

The thing is that some of those buildings are very old. Now those buildings when theyr were originally constructed, they where not build for multi storey. Bust as more and more people started working on the Island somebody realized that it was an avenue to make money. And maybe he saw that he could raise his building by 1 or 2 storeys to make more money and he did. Soon the herd mentality set in. What you see in Ita Faaji are mostly buildings where local masons and foremen contracted direct labour to raise. Most of them were not originally intended for what you see. And that is why we kep hearing collapsed building.

Some buildings collapse in the process of raising them. If me I had my way, I will order martial law on Lagos Island. Heavy military occupation. Set timeline in motin for evacuation and bulldoze all those raggedy buildings. Every single one of them. And build a megacity out of Lagos Island.

If war breaks out on the Island, you will see how everybody will abandon the place. The place will be dead silent

Facts remains that most road side commercial buildings were not over viewed by competent architects which leads to the dilapidation of the building. I feel sorry for those children.

Don’t use English words that you don’t understand . And by the way an architect has nothing to do with structural stability of a building . That is the job of a structural engineer. Together with you I commiserate with the families nevertheless

It was federal government responsibility to demands votes from Lagos residents but in times of agonises.

Just imagine the shabby structure school children are housed and a certain politician that calls himself the master strategist and the Ghandi of Lagos deploys trucks of bullion van to rig elections.

Many structures in Lagos state are tragedies waiting to happen especially in the old Lagos island.
So is he the reason your father failed in life How many times have we read about houses collapse from different states here? Why bring politics and your hatred for Tinubu into it? It's a private property,you want him to come and renovate it? You bitter heartless soul.

Oh no no no! The innocent children should not suffer for the neglect of the old,greedy shylock isale Eko landlord who lack taste when it comes to erecting standard buildings. Their parents are obviously poor hence the kind of school they attend. Let a miracle happen to those kids.

bro I are sounding more like an agnostic here. An agnostic depends on rational reasoning and realistic and scientific proofs. Your Christianity depends on miracles and shit. If you stand on a busy road, I expect your God to make a random tree fall and block the road . that way nothing will happen to you. Your God keeps messing up.
