Building with 500 rooms collapses

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a large building had collapsed in Lagos.

According to Punch, the building has over 500 rooms and hundreds of residents. It is known as Agboye Estate on Oduntan Street, Ketu. Legit.ng gathered that the building first caved in on a Saturday afternoon following hours of rainfall that greeted most parts of Lagos.

As residents were still trying to salvage their belongings, the building crumbled again, destroying another structure inside the compound before collapsing completely. At least two persons were reportedly injured and have been used to a private hospital. The Lagos State Emergency Management Agency has reportedly cordoned off the premises.
