Are you trying to saying your being careful and due diligence has brought you thus far?

Well he has a good case under the tort of negligence but it will be advisable to bring it under OCCUPIERS LIABILITY.

Lekki Gardens prequal process is faulty.
How did you engage a contractor who leaves a hazardous job site without controls?

Safety tape at the 4th floor to an open shaft is not standards.

lawd..op , always remember to put the W in rapper pls ..every shitty bum,low life Boise maker,mic grabber riffraff sporting fake dreadlocks out there is a rapper ABIeven that common S treet theif, Kobo Kaley (not Marley pls) is also addressed as rapper!damn! all these IGK (indomie generation kids)sef know next to nothing.!

We may be anonymous but not robot

The media consulthat's explanation is so lame......


Why allow people or allow yourself live in uncompleted buildings ? An open space such as that should not have tapes to cordon off the area.


Yes we aren't in The Western World so the onus lies on you to keep yourself safe at all times .

They should be sued for manslaughter.

Just read the weak response of the management

National tragedy. No short of bad news in Buhari's Nigeria. And they will always want to rule when they have no idea on how to move the country forward. Leading us to suffering and hardship

Sue them for all the kobo they've got and let this serves as a lesson to others. That was an avoidable death!

He obviously came with no brain in the first place.

Lekki Garden again, they like to cut corners and compromise safety. If there were blocks covering the space they were never supposed to be removed until when the contractor is very much ready with all the equipment to do the job.

You are a stupid man.

His son was not vigilant, he should have known about the open space since he was not a new occupant to the building, but why does his father want to sue the owner of the estate since they had paid him a condolence visit?

We really need to start valuing life in this country

A sexagenarian, Festus Eti, is demanding justice for his son, Zino, popularly known as Ziggy, who died after he fell from his four-storey apartment in Lekki, Lagos.

Festus, who attributed the incident to negligence, demanded that the management of the estate, which is owned by Lekki Gardens, must be held responsible for his son’s death.

It was gathered that the upcoming rapper fell from the top of the building at the Paradise Estate after he mistakenly fell into an open space, which was supposed to house an elevator.

According to reports, several residents had complained about the unprotected open space to the management of the estate, which allegedly did nothing till it claimed the life of the 23-year-old on June 16, 2019.

The 66-year-old father said his son’s death was a bitter pill to swallow as he was a promising young man with dreams and aspirations.

The Delta State indigene said, “Zino lived with his friends and one of them called me as soon as the incident happened. I live in Warri and I travelled to Lagos on Monday.

“According to his friends, when he got home on Sunday around 10pm, he ran up the stairs to the fourth floor, where his apartment is. He was tired and wanted to catch his breath. He wanted to lean on something and he unknowingly leaned on the wall near the open space, because there was no power supply. He fell down and unfortunately, he did not survive the fall.

“Zino was my first son and a final year student of Public Administration at the Lead City University. Though his friends have reported to the police, I also intend to report to the Office of the Public Defender, because it is a clear case of negligence; the owner of the property left the elevator space open.”

Festus said though the management of the estate had visited him to commiserate with him, he intends to sue the firm for negligence.

“Zino’s friends said they had written to the management on several occasions about the open space to no avail, only for it to be blocked after my son had died. The management of the estate paid me a condolence visit, but I still intend to sue them for their negligence,” he added.

A media consultant to Lekki Gardens, Bolaji Abimbola, who described the incident as unfortunate, said the company’s intention was to make life easier for the residents.

He stated, “The estate is a five-storey building and there is a lift shaft, but it has not been installed. Before now, it was sealed with blocks. The company, with the intention to make life easier for the residents, contracted the installation of the lift to a contractor.

“To do the job, the contractor had to remove the blocks. In the process, the lift space was not covered. When the residents contacted the company about the development, it wrote the contractor, who put a safety tape round it; but unfortunately, it didn’t suffice.

“The firm has been engaging with the family and has condoled with them. Only God understands how the incident happened, because all the residents knew about the ongoing installation of the elevator.”

U don dey stay thr since,u suppose don code whr trap dey.he came back wen .
am sure he was drunk and high.
Na who dey cry dey see road.
So he did not have torch light phone to see whr he is going.
He was drunk. Period
Must u live in lekki
Cos u wan impress some cheap low class babe
They are worthless

Negligence.
But I always tell people this

Nigeria is a country designed to hinder or harm or even prematurely kill whoever is in it.We are surrounded by all kinds of failure and hazards that shouldn't exist even in a war torn country.From falling containers to filling stations in heavy residential areas,there are hazards everywhere you look.

You NEED to be vigilant and aware of your surroundings and the happenings there.I see alot of people absent minded or on their precious phones moving without looking,unaware of dangers around them.You have to take care of yourself because NOBODY will do that and as you can see,everybody can be BOUGHT and BRIBED.

What stopped the people living with that deadly hazard from blocking it themselves ?Dont they have kids that may run into that hole too?And then..did this guy just move there and didnt know about that hole?A part of me still thinks he may be been murdered,and in a way he was murdered by the gross negligence of that same lekki gardens company.

Sad sad sad.

This country sha. If something doesn't happen,they wouldn't run and apply safety. This is suppose to be a damn law suit any where in the world but naija get as e be. Staircase on a five storey building especially when you are exhausted for the day or stressed out for such expensive estate is bullsh1t.

It's going to be terrible.

Because the Estate delays, the damages should hv been done in time as long as Rent is being paid.

These Lekki Gardens people again?
This company is building up a HORRIBLE reputation.

RIP to the dude...
Hope his family gets deserved justice!
