Five-Storey Building Collapses in Onitsha, Anambra

A five-story building under construction at Dennis Memorial Grammar School in Onitsha, Anambra State, has collapsed.

The building, which was being constructed by the Anglican School, had reached its finishing stages when it collapsed around 7:15 am on Wednesday.

Although no lives were lost in the incident, a source within the school, who wished to remain anonymous, told our correspondent that a significant amount of money had been invested in the structure.

The source explained that the building began to cave in from the top floor until it completely collapsed into rubble.

Fortunately, the failed structure did not pose a danger to anyone, as the students’ hostel was located far from the construction site, preventing any casualties.
