Reports indicate that those who were badly injured have been taken to the General Hospital in Badagry for treatment.
The incident adds to the rising cases of building collapse in the country’s commercial nerve centre. Last year, a high rise crumbled in Ikoyi, killing scores and injuring others.
Experts have identified quackery, substandard building materials, pilfering, and faulty/non-adherence to designs among others as reasons for the recurrent cases of building collapse.
