Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, has ordered an immediate investigation into the collapse of a building under construction at Iperu in the Ikenne Local Government Area of the state.
Abiodun’s call came after the Nigerian Institute of Building attributed the poor enforcement of regulations guiding the construction industry by the government to the incessant building collapse.
Abiodun on Saturday, in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Kunle Somorin, said he had constituted a four-man team comprising the State Commissioner for Physical Planning, Tunji Odunlami, Special Adviser on Environment, Ola Oresanya, Special Adviser, Bureau of Lands and Survey, Ololade Salami and the State Commissioner of Police, Lanre Bankole, to look into the remote and immediate causes of the building collapse and give a report in one week.
He said, “No one who violates the building codes or regulations in the state will be allowed to go scot-free. Such person or persons will be made to face the full wrath of the law.”
