When a two-story structure under construction at 17, Olanrewaju Street, Alausa, Ikeja, suddenly collapsed, construction workers narrowly spared death.
Fortunately, no casualties were reported.
To help, men from the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, Alausa, flocked to the site.
Late on Tuesday night, the building’s supporting base gave way, causing it to collapse.
No one was hurt, and the situation was under control, according to Margaret Adeseye, director of the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, who confirmed the occurrence.
Adeseye claims that “a two-story building under construction seeing its supporting base give way has experienced a partial second decking collapse.

“The collapse happened at 17, Olanrewaju Street, Alausa, Ikeja to the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service headquarters.
“Eventually, the crew was able to rescue the situation and forestall a secondary incident as no one was trapped and all the construction workers on site escaped unhurt.”
Meanwhile, the state government has condoned off the structure for proper investigation into the remote cause of the collapse.
