EXCERPT: It’s been over 2 years since I published this report. Yet, more incidents have occurred. In fact less than 4 days ago – on 1st November 2021, another even more serious building Collapse occurred with lives lost, injuries sustained and rescue work ongoing even as I type this!

Few – if at all any – lessons have been learned, since it seems nothing has changed. Indeed yesterday’s Interview of Architect Majekodunmi – a member of the Institute of Architects – at the Ikoyi site paints a truly sorry picture, but at the same time offers useful insights into the institutional limitations, especially on the side of the government, that make this problem difficult to eliminate.

That’s why I’ve chosen to republish my 2 part paper, with its detailed analysis, which remains even more relevant today, as it was in 2019, when I wrote it, along with a verbatim text Transcript of the Channels TV interview of the architect about this latest 2021 21-storey building collapse mishap.

I hope you find it useful.
