Death toll in building collapse rises to 4 in Lagos, Nigeria

According to local sources, five people have been rescued and emergency workers have been digging through rubble to find survivors.

It was reported that the building was under construction before its collapse.

In Nigeria, building collapses have been on the increase in recent times.

Last November, at least 40 people died after a partially-built block of apartments collapsed in Lagos. (ILKHA)
