The Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has ordered a probe into the circumstances that led to the collapse of a seven-storey building in the Banana Island neighborhood of Ikoyi area in the state.
The high-rise building which had been under construction for months unexpectedly collapsed with many workers inside at 4:58 p.m. on Wednesday.
The state’s Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Gbenga Omotoso, who confirmed the development in a statement on Thursday night, said the governor had directed the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA) to conduct the probe.
