The collapse resulted in the death of an unidentified male welder.

The incident occurred at 6:45 pm and was confirmed by the Permanent Secretary of the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA), Dr Femi Oke-Osanyintolu.

According to Dr Oke-Osanyintolu, the building was being worked on by unskilled laborers, which led to the collapse.

A post-disaster assessment conducted by LASEMA’s Response Team indicated that the building is stable and does not pose a threat to surrounding buildings.
