A three-storey building collapsed on Friday evening at 14, Ikpoh Street, Surulere, Lagos.
But the National Emergency Management Agency confirmed that there was no casualty.
Territorial Coordinator, NEMA, Mr Ibrahim Farinloye, confirmed the news of the collapse in Lagos.
The building came down at about 10.00 p.m. on Friday.
An occupant of the building, Mr Gervase Anyanwu, a businessman, said that all the other occupants were able to run out of the building before it came down completely.
Anyanwu said that before the building came down, there was a large sound at one of its wings.
“Immediately we heard the sound, all the occupants of the building gathered at the mustard point, before evacuating for safety.
“No casualty was recorded,” Anyanwu said.
Anyanwu said the immediate evacuation of the occupants was “simply by the grace of God”.
However, it was gathered from another resident of the street that the building had shown serious signs of distress before it came down.
