Two children die in collapsed Lagos building
In the Ikorodu neighbourhood of Lagos State, a building collapsed on Ajao Street, killing two children.
According to the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), the event took place early on Saturday.
“The children aged nine and seven were trapped when the fence from the neighbouring house fell on their building during the day’s heavy downpour,†NEMA Coordinator in the South-West, Ibrahim Farinloye, said in a statement.
According to the Agency, calls from children in distress were not adequately directed in order to save their lives.
NEMA expressed sympathy to the deceased's parents and asked God to grant them the strength to endure the loss.
