School Building Collapses In Lagos 

 

Students and teachers narrowly escaped death after a four‑storey school building collapsed in Lagos on Monday, around noon.

The structure housed Yemco Nursery, Primary and Comprehensive College located at 11 Adudatu Street, behind County Hospital in the Aguda area of Ogba.

The building collapsed minutes after students and staff had been evacuated from the premises.

At the time of reporting, no casualties have been confirmed.

Eyewitnesses say the collapse happened about three minutes after evacuation from the building, which had shown signs of structural issues prior to the incident. Authorities including the Lagos Fire and Rescue Service, are at the scene.

Meanwhile, the school authority and the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency have yet to issue an official report on the incident.
