    I hope no one is in there. this collapse is probably a result of cutting corners by the contractor or owner

    The security guard which is a mallam, said he was feeling stones falling on his body, then he told all the workers to go out. As they were all coming out thats how the building just felt

    All investigations are ongoing, I just left the Collapse Site with my Boss Engr. Oludayo Oluyemi, the current Chairman of Nigeria society of Engineers Lagos Chapter.

    We spoke to raypower and TVC news few minutes ago. all efforts are been made to contact the Engineer, Architect and contractor handling the Job. Am Currently working on a report on want could have caused the collapse. its a pity and we Thank God no live was lost.
