Another fatal case of building collapse: constant case of medicine after deaths.

[Marvelockg]

In a recent development, there is sad news about 200+ students currently trapped under a collapsed school building in Jos. The unfortunate incident happened today while innocent children were writing their examination in a school building that lacked basic structural integrity and was probably neglected by the government and allowed to house hundreds of students in it.

If you've visited some public schools in some localities and looked at the crowd of students learning in an old two to three-story building that's half dead and yet still in use, you will weep for our dear nation.

Cases of building collapse have been on the rise more often than expected and most of these buildings are situated in environments with poor drainage systems and water-logged areas that make it too unsafe for individuals staying in them and yet most of the people making use of these building have no alternative since the private schools are too expensive for the average families to afford and have to settle for what's affordable and now they have to pay the price with their lives.

As a community that's part of the Nigerian society, we sympathize with all the families that are affected in this gory and sad incident and we hope it will not only trigger short-term concerns that will be swept under the carpet in no time. It's really a sad development indeed.

Dis na very sad news and my condolences to di families of students wey don lose dem lives for dis unfortunate incident. Di issue of collapsed buildings no be new thing for dis country, property owners and engineers go de manage materials wey dem suppose to take build upstairs make e de solid and withstand di test of time. Government wey suppose to de evaluate di structures sometimes dem officials sef go fit to collect bribe and allow substandard building materials and also approve buildings wey no reach standard. So for dis rampant building collapse matter na both di builders and di government officials wey de approve buildings get di blame and di authority suppose hold dem accountable for di lose of innocent lives.
