At least one person sustained injury on Thursday after a building under construction collapsed in Ikeja, Lagos.
The incident occurred at about 3:00 p.m. at 21, Makinde Street Alausa, barely 24 hours after the Lagos State Building Control Agency (LSBCA) served a stop-work order on the building.
The Nation gathered that a pillar at the back of the building cracked, causing the structure to tilt sideways, resting on another building.
About five workers said to be in the premises at the time of the incident, jumped on the roof of an adjourning building but only one of them was injured.
According to the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA), the two-storey building collapsed from the base because of structural defect.
