#LASBCA Demolishes Partially Collapsed Two-Storey Building In Ibeju Lekki [PHOTOS]—Removes Two Other Bungalows Sited On Access Roads.
The Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA), on Wednesday, demolished a partially collapsed two-storey building at Oribanwa Town, Ibeju-Lekki Area of the State.
A statement signed by the General Manager, LASBCA, Arc. Gbolahan Oki, said the demolition of the building was necessary to avert a total collapse of the building that may cost the lives and property of citizens.
Oki further stated that the building construction, which was ongoing during the collapse, was earlier detected by the Agency and sealed up after serving all statutory notices including a stop-work order.
Stating that all the processes yielded no positive response from the recalcitrant developer, the General Manager maintained that some building owners/developers are bent on contravening the State’s building laws and noted that the Agency will continue to compel compliance in order to avert further building collapse in Lagos State.
