A three-storey building still under construction on Akanbi Crescent in the Yaba area of Lagos State has collapsed.
The PUNCH gathered that there are possible casualties stuck in the building.
The building collapsed into another building beside it.
According to an eyewitness, a part of the building had collapsed late last year, but the construction did not stop.
Another eyewitness on Lawani Street, a street off the scene of the incident, told our correspondent that her car was affected last year, when a section of the building collapsed, however, construction continued despite the police being called in.
Our correspondent also gathered that the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency Response Unit was called to the scene but had yet to arrive.
So far, only a 16-year-old boy and another adult male have come out of the rubble while there is an unconfirmed number still trapped in the collapsed building. (Punch)
