Kosegbe, who said the statistics were alarming, assured that the agency had taken inventory and was already working towards addressing them. “But now, the government is being proactive and we try most times take action before such buildings collapses. He said there was need to understand the remote causes of building collapse in the state, adding that the administration of Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu has made safety of lives and properties a priority.
Osayintolu said there were some buildings the state would critically look into within 24 hours, adding that the government was prepared to accommodate persons who would be affected by its urbanisation policy until alternatives were available for them. “We want to know where we are weak, our strengths and how to improve on our weaknesses. We are still going to carry out a sort of workshop for everybody including the artisans in this job.”
