A six story building under construction as a hotel collapsed this
morning on 444 Crescent , Citec Villas , Gwarinpa. The incident happened
at about 1.00 am. Five laborers were trapped inside and three have been
rescued by combined efforts of the Police, NEMA and FEMA. The iron rods
used for the pillars gave in like wood and the concrete work were said
to be as brittle as ordinary sand. Efforts are still going on to rescue
the two innocent laborers trapped under the rubble. More photos after
the cut.
