Many victims remain trapped under the debris of a collapsed building in the Sabon Lugbe area of Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory.
Details of the incident are sketchy as of the time of this report, but some social media users said the affected building caved in on Saturday evening.
Videos showed a crowd trying to rescue the victims.
“People are under this rubble. It is a building under construction.
“We are calling on the government and relevant agencies to come and rescue those who are trapped here,” a witness disclosed to newsmen.
This development follows a similar incident some days ago on Amusu Street, in the Orile Iganmu area of Lagos State, where a two-storey building collapsed.
The building as seen in a trending video, collapsed, leaving residents close to the house to seek for safety.
