I thought we have a Society for Building Engineers/a body that checks and regulate all building projects? Why are we always having building collapses all around. My heart goes out to all that lost a loved one.

Mercy Lord!

Some of these schools don't worth it at all. They just rent house and begin to turn it to schools. I believe that building wasn't met for school in the first place, and it must be very old building

This is sad!!!

It's time massive integrity tests be carried out on most of these Lagos Island buildings as most of them don't seem to leave room for hope.

Lord Jesus!

Saraki out! Rochas out! Ganduje (dollar governor) is on the way out. Lagos? Still under slave bondage?

Father have mercy

Can someone please 'explain' what Twitter like/favorite icon means and when to hit it, may be it means something else that I am not aware of. I can't believe tweet about the death of kids should attract likes

This image looks like the library in construction in unilag that collapsed.

Another despicable act by the structural engineers of this building. What has become of the arm of the state government responsible for supervising construction of buildings? The construction company should be closed and managers sent to jail.

😬😬😬😬😬

Subhanallah! Who authorised the approval for the construction of that building? A whole generation of future leaders have been recklessly destroyed! They must not go on punished!

Too bad

Lord Have Mercy

That picture shows a building under construction. Why was such a building in use in the first place? Why not wait for it to be completed? What kind of impatience brought this on?

Oto gé.

BadmanSophss Wait, what

This happens when people that ought not to handle building or structures does it. Am a certified Constructor

Who approved the primary school for goodness sake? The arrest should start from there, then the contractor...

My God!

I bliv jidesanwoolu will implement the bills of HSE in all construction firms and lagos environment

😢😢😢

Very sad one

Is this the building?

Subuhanallah

Lord have mercy.

God Please.
