Two-story building has collapsed, leaving three people missing in Rivers State

A two-story building falls in Rivers state, three people are thought dead.

On Saturday, February 4, a structure under construction in the Nbodo Community of the Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State collapsed, killing at least three construction workers.

When the two-story structure collapsed on the employees on site on Saturday night, several of them were hurt, and three were first thought to be dead.

Olufemi Ayodele, the NSCDC's Rivers State Command's public relations officer, who verified the event, said a preliminary examination had shown that the rods, pillars, and blocks used to construct the two-story structure fell well short of the necessary standards.
