One person has been confirmed dead after a storey building collapsed in the Aromire area of Ikeja, Lagos State.
The incident occurred at about 6:35 pm on Wednesday.
The Permanent Secretary of the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency, Olufemi Oke-Osanyintolu, in a statement on Thursday, said the building formerly occupied by Kilms Mart, was being worked on by unskilled labourers resulting in a partial collapse.
He also said, “The post-disaster assessment conducted by the Agency’s LRT indicates that the building is stable and does not pose a threat to other buildings around.”
