A two storey building under construction on Akpajo road, Elelenwo caved in Wednesday morning.
.
Eyewitnesses said some of the builders were resuming for the days job when the incident occurred. Vanguard gathered that no life was lost.
.
At press time, the gate to the premises was under lock and key. The workers could not be traced for comment.
.
Those who spoke said poor mixing of the concrete used for the decking and the pillars were largely responsible for the ugly development.
.
They also blamed the 10mm rods that were allegedly used for the decking instead of 16mm.
.
In another development, a hit and run driver allegedly knocked down one of the ladies engaged by the Rivers state Environmental Sanitation Agency to sweep major roads in Port Harcourt.
I though we've gone past this building collapse of a thing in our country. It is definately not funny anymore. People are dying.
