Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, has said that the state government would demolish any building that failed integrity test in Itafaji.
It would be recalled that no fewer than 12 people, mostly school children, died in the area, when a building collapsed on Wednesday.
The governor spoke on arrival at the scene of the building collapse on Lagos Island.
Said Ambode: “This area and buildings here will be undergoing an integrity test. As you can see some of the buildings had been marked for demolition.
“We have been receiving pleas from house owners from the area. Notwithstanding, we will go ahead with the integrity test and any building that fails the integrity test will be demolished.
“But the most important thing now is to save more lives before we talk about dealing with the culprit. We will stop at nothing to ensure the proper things are done”.
