Musa Adamu, on a late afternoon in November 2019, was all sweaty, alongside his coworkers, swinging their sledgehammers in determination to bring down the concrete wall of an old building. A massive hit was all it took for the building to collapse, and it came crashing down on Mr Adamu, burying him under the rubble.
He was lucky to survive.
The 35-year-old construction worker, who relocated to Abuja in 2008, was rushed to Kuje General Hospital but was immediately transferred to the National Hospital in Garki due to the severity of his case. The hospital is about 37 km from his workplace and 19 km from his home.
