Sigh... Easily avoidable and preventable incidents. If those paid to ensure proper buildings are erected had done their jobs, these people would be alive today! Sadly, more buildings and lives are waiting to give way! Even existing buildings are supposed to undergo inspections to ascertain quality or need for renovations... We do absolutely nothing right in this country... In all sectors, so much negligence and complacency! 22 Likes 1 Share |

Dilapidated old structures that should be given proper inspection, advised their demolition and rebuild accordingly just full most saturated areas in Lagos... But then, The Agents and Landlords are only interested in astronomically high House Rents...nothing more. ...Some can even cut a standard shop into three bedroom flat ![]() ![]() 5 Likes |

powerfulguy:It collapsed at a very wrong time. Casualties will be very high. 11pm on a Sunday would be great sleeping time aside for today being a holiday sha. Maybe some people would be away from home frolicking. But there's a high tendency for very high casualties. 6 Likes |

Now who do we blame for this? A) The engineer who built the place knowing how the foundation is. B) The stupid block sellers that mix one back of cement with almost half a trip of sand. C) The landlord who ought to know better as to perform routine maintenance from time to time.. D) The devil. E) Non of the above. 1 Like |

RIP to the death but we need to patronize professional hence, to avoid catastrophe. The regulators should leave up to their responsibilities, a mason should not be an engineer because he has 20 yrs in the industry |

Make i yarn you as a bonafide ebute-metta breed, dating back to july 18th 2006, about the first building collapse i know of on Bola by Ibadan street, i can confidently tell you that subseqent collapse structures were built between 2004 to 2022. Those are structures under 20yrs. Will you say they are old? This particular building, i gues it was constructed around 2004- or 2005. I am not too sure. I only know that the landlord of my mums shop was residing in the bungalow that was on the land before it was redevelop. Those structures are extremely design and constructed to fail. I remember my dad once told me that all this building will start coming down max 15yrs because of the extremely poor mode of construction, substandard materials and low technical know-how, and yes, the old man was damn right. That year, those developers were kings,. They owe suppliers, workers and also intending tenants. They collect money from different people for a flat and yet none of them will still get the flat. They will use their money to develop the house, increase rent far more than the agreed rent, and those people will have to forfeit their cash or wait till eternity to get refund. Landlords of those years, gave their old solid buildings to developers to manage which the will be demolish and 3- storey building of extremely failed structure to be manage by him as agreed for 15years or more will be constructed. By then, thats if the structure lives to see 15yrs, the structure is already dilapidated or collapsed. The developer smiled to bank while landlord cry and continue crying after those years. The face-me and slap you i grew up in was given to developer in 2014 and i can tell u the building is already a shadow of itself. Another structure intending to collapse is on Oloto by Herbert macaulay. Mehn, i was shocked one day when i saw them fixing column to brace the dead building. This same oloto street, about 2 buildings have already gone down. Untill when we the citizen get rid of our greed, we cannot move forward. 21 Likes 4 Shares |

All these old houses should either be sold or given to developers to reconstruct or rebuild... Don't expect s house built in 1960 to stand OK to this day |
