Nigerian singer, Paul Okoye, widely known as Rudeboy, has joined the millions talking about the collapsed 21-storey building in Ikoyi.
On Monday, an uncompleted 21-storey building located at Gerard Road, Ikoyi, Lagos state, collapsed with a yet-to-be-ascertained number of persons still trapped beneath the rubble.
Emergency responders were deployed to the scene and as of press time, three persons have been rescued while ten others lost their lives. According to the reports, 65% of the building has sold out and it’s billed for completion in 2022 (Source: Goldmynetv)
Gbolahan Oki, general manager, Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA), says the owner of the collapsed 21-storey building was given the approval for a 15 storey building, not a 21 storey building. He added that the owner of the property will face the law because people died and also for using inferior material for the construction.
Commenting on the sad incident, Rudeboy shared a video on the collapsed building while jogging the estate. Apparently, the building is located around his hood and the traffic has worsened because of the rescue mission.
Sharing the video, Rudeboy advised people to live their lives and not to impress anyone. According to him, as people are trapped in the collapsed building, others are trying to get to work #sad
