Photos: Uncompleted two storey building collapses in Lagos, artisans abscond

An uncompleted two story building collapsed in Makinde Street, Ikeja, Thursday. According to RRS operatives at the scene, the owner of the collapsed building is reportedly based overseas. The Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA) had earlier served the builder a 'Stop Work Order' but it wasn't obeyed.

Four artisans jumped to the roofs of adjourning buildings during the collapse and were uninjured. However, they absconded on sighting government officials. The Area has been cordoned off for rescue operation.
