Recovery efforts are ongoing.”The LASEMA boss added that reports from the scene indicated that other persons, including shop owners who had resumed business activities, might still be trapped in the collapsed structure.“There are reports that additional persons, including shop owners who had resumed business, may still be trapped. Search and rescue operations remain active,” he said.He further revealed that heavy-duty equipment had been deployed to aid rescue efforts.“Heavy-duty equipment, including an excavator, is being deployed to support rescue efforts,” Oke-Osanyintolu added.He appealed to residents to stay away from the scene to enable emergency workers to carry out their duties unhindered.“Members of the public are advised to remain calm, avoid the incident scene, and allow emergency responders unrestricted access to carry out life-saving operations,” he said.Related NewsWe’ll recover all trapped in Rivers collapsed building —NEMA2027: PDP can best deliver Tinubu’s agenda in Lagos — DohertyJUST IN: Trailer loses control, crashes into FMC fence in AbiaLASEMA said it would continue to provide verified updates as the rescue operation progresses.Scene of the collapsed building.
