A six-storey hotel building under construction collapsed this morning on 444 crescent, Citec Villas, Gwarinpa, Abuja.
This happened at about 1.00 a.m. Five laborers were trapped inside and three have been rescued by joint efforts of the Police, NEMA and FEMA.
The iron rods used for the pillars gave in like wood and the concrete work were said to be as brittle as ordinary sand. Efforts are still going on to rescue the two innocent laborers trapped under the rubble.
