On Thursday, a two-storey building collapsed at Eke Amawbia Market in Awka, Anambra State, leaving many feared dead. The tragic incident happened at about 12 noon, causing panic in the area. Traders, who witnessed the collapse, blamed the disaster on substandard engineering work, alleging that the building's structural integrity had been compromised. The development has raised concern in the state as it added to the numerous list of collapsed buildings in the state this year, 2024.
Lawyers from the legal team representing DMGS and the Diocese on the Niger, Anglican Communion, rejected two members of the panel investigating the incident. In a press release by Sir Oselloka Offoh, Director of Communications for the Diocese, the Church rejected Prof. Akaolisa Ezeagu, the panel's chairman, and Engr. Sir Victor Meju, a key member. They accused them of making biased comments and publications following the incident, and doubted their credibility and fairness.
