An eye witness, who was also one of the workers, Kazeem Adebayo, said work was still ongoing before the unfortunate incident happened.
“We have been complaining to the site engineer that the poles used as support for the decking were not strong enough to hold the building, but all our complaints were taken seriously, as the site engineer was only concerned about the completion of the work.
