A storey building already dilapidated was found to have collapsed at 10 Demola Ibiyemi Crescent Araromi, Lasu/Isheri road.
Further information gathered at the scene revealed that repairs were on ongoing in the building before a segment of the building collapsed and the landlord was trapped while the bricklayers escaped unscathed, but he was retrieved by neighbors and taken to general hospital.
Unfortunately the landlord lost his life before arrival to the hospital.
The agency LRT, LASAMBUS and the Nigerian police were the responders at the scene of the incident.
The attention of LABSCA and Lagos State Material Testing Laboratory will be needed to conduct integrity and stability test on the other part of the building.
The entire building was cordoned off completely.
