One dead, three injured as two-storey building collapses in Lagos

A two-storey building under construction collapsed overnight on Friday on Akinola Street, near Fadeyi Bus Stop in Lagos. The workers had slept at the site to prepare for an early start the next day; one died and three were rescued with injuries by LASEMA-led emergency teams and taken to hospital. Search operations continued to check whether anyone else was trapped beneath the rubble. The cause of the collapse was not yet known, LASEMA Permanent Secretary Dr. Femi Oke-Osanyintolu said.
