Chinedu, a 40-year-old man, has tragically lost his life, and two others have suffered injuries as bags of cement collapsed on them at a construction site on Usman Mogaji Street, Ajangbadi in Lagos State.
The incident occurred around 1:00 am on Monday while the construction workers were sleeping on the site.
An anonymous eyewitness, drawn by a distressing noise, discovered the three workers buried under cement bags and promptly sought help.
The injured were swiftly transported to the hospital, but Chinedu succumbed to the severity of the incident.
Abimbola, another eyewitness, shared that efforts were underway to convey Chinedu’s body to the mortuary, with attempts to inform the family about the tragic event.
