Many Feared Trapped As Building Collapses In Lagos

A four-storey building located on Oremeta Street in the Ojodu-Berger area of Lagos State has collapsed.
Several people are feared trapped under the rubble, as emergency responders are currently on the scene.
The structure, which reportedly housed a popular local restaurant, collapsed around 8 a.m. on Saturday.
As of the time of filing this report, the number of casualties remains unclear.
THE WHISTLER reports that this incident comes just days after two adult males were rescued alive on Sunday from the debris of a one-storey building under construction that collapsed in the Idumota area of the state.
That incident occurred on Agarawu Street, off Aroloya Central Mosque, near the Idumota Bus Stop on Lagos Island.
Similarly, in March, a building under construction in Lekki also collapsed, with at least 14 individuals rescued and taken to the hospital. Unfortunately, two victims were later recovered dead.
