He said that there are many similar buildings in the Lagos Island area that are also at risk. “There are over 1,000 distressed other buildings of this nature in Lagos, which, if nothing is done to demolish them, they will still collapse, resulting to more calamities in the state,” said Kunle Awobodu of the Building Collapse Prevention Guild. “The collapsed building had been marked for demolition about three times, but the building regulatory agency has not demolished it,” Awobudu said. Governor Ambode, who visited the scene of the incident on Wednesday, confirmed that many homes in the area had structural problems and would be demolished.
