Many people are reported dead and many others trapped following the
collapse of a building in the premises of the Synagogue Church of All
Nations, (SCOAN) Ejigbo in Lagos.
The building situated behind the headquarters of the Synagogue Church
of all Nations (belonging To the church) collapsed around 2pm this afternoon.
Most of the victims are worshipers who lived inside the church.
Ambulances have arrived the scene to rescue the injured and evacuate the dead ones to the mortuary.
An eye witness states "I don't know how exactly it happened, but one of the high-rise buildings
belonging to the Synagogue, Ikotun, collapsed.. ...and a lot of people
trapped in the building, died. I have been able to count 7
ambulance and several danfo buses filled with corpses. A military
helicopter is hovering over the church and the Ikotun area and there is a
strong police presence......grade 1 traffic for those that are headed to Ikotun from Ejigbo, Mushin and co. If this had happened on a Sunday...See ehn, I'm gonna be honest with myself, I've lost count of all these ambulances. Private vehicles are helping out now."
Details later...
