Twelve days after the collapse of a three-storey building at Magodo Phase 1, another two-storey building collapsed at Ojuelegba area of Lagos on Thursday evening.

A correspondent of the News Agency of Nigeria who visited the scene at No 7, Rufai Street, Ojuelegba, said no life was lost in the incident which occurred at 8.55 pm.

Some of the residents, who spoke with NAN, said all the inhabitants had vacated the building before the crash but still had some of their belonging inside the building.

One of the residents, Mr Emeka Anozie, said when a window from the flat at the back collapsed around 7 p.m, he alerted all the remaining tenants who were busy removing their belongings to come out, adding that the entire building collapsed a few minutes later.
