Oyo Seals Off Collapsed Building Under Construction

After it collapsed on Sunday night, the Oyo State Government shut down a well-known restaurant’s construction site in the Dugbe district of Ibadan, the state capital.

Following an on-the-spot inspection of the collapsed building, Williams Akin-Funmilayo, the commissioner for land, housing, and urban development, made this known to the press.

Akin-Funmilayo claimed the goal of the action was to prevent casualties, ensure the safety of lives and property, and also provide the government with accurate information about the incident’s cause.

The commissioner pointed out that some of the building materials used to construct the collapsed structure were poor and of poor quality.

To prevent a repeat of such an incident, he added that the state’s collapsed building and other restaurant branches would undergo an integrity check.

He added that the government’s next course of action would depend on the results of the test.

10 bodies were found in the Jegede, Ibadan’s Olunloyo neighborhood, in October 2024, among the debris from a collapsed building.

Some individuals’ injuries were confirmed to be also.
