It was learnt that the incident happened on Saturday and sympathisers and emergency workers are currently at the scene trying to get under the rubble.
At least 40 people are currently trapped in the rubble following a building collapse in the Sabon Lugbe area of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
According to SaharaReporters, it was learnt that the incident happened on Saturday and sympathisers and emergency workers are currently at the scene trying to get under the rubble.
"People are under this rubble. It is a building under construction. We are calling on the government and televant agencies to come and rescue those who are trapped here," a narrator in a video from the scene of the incident said.
Recall that in the first week of October, responders had rescued four people from a two-storey residential building, a section of which collapsed in Abuja.
SaharaReporters had reported that a yet-to-be-confirmed number of people had been trapped in a section of the two-storey residential building that collapsed in Abuja.
It was gathered that the building was located close to the popular Cupid Hotel on Cupid Road, Sultan Dasuki Way in the Kubwa area of Abuja.
About some weeks ago, SaharaReporters had reported that a yet-to-be-confirmed number of workers had been feared dead as a building at Nicholas Ukachukwu’s Praco Limited Estate located in Guzape, Abuja collapsed.
