The Commissioner for information and strategy in Lagos State, Gbenga Omotosho has said that the State Government has not ordered the demolition of the remaining two structures at the site of the building that collapsed in Ikoyi.

The Commissioner made this known in a released statement, saying that an integrity test would have to be conducted on the two buildings before and such action can be taken.

He reiterated that, it is wrong to speculate that the buildings will be demolished.

He said “The Panel of Inquiry instituted into the collapse of the building has continued to sit, and an integrity test is yet to be conducted on the two buildings. It is, therefore, wrong to assert or speculate that the buildings will be demolished,”

“The operation at the site of the collapsed building continues. Vehicular movement around the site has been smooth, following the reopening of the road.”

“Two more bodies were recovered from the site today. The recovery of the two bodies has brought to 45 the number of bodies retrieved from the site.”

He stated further that “The identification of bodies of the victims of the incident has continued at IDH, Yaba, Lagos Mainland. Thirty-two families have come forward to submit samples for DNA to identify bodies that they wish to claim. In cases where identification is clear and there are no arguments, the bodies will be released to the families.”

He added that a committee comprising senior officials of the ministries of health and justice has started working on identification and release of the bodies.

You would recall that sequel to the collapse of the 21 storey building located on Gerrard road in Ikoyi, the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, had inaugurated a tribunal to probe the collapse of the building.
