An Abuja building which collapsed today [yesterday], had 18 people trapped though emergency workers are battling to rescue some of the survivors including children in the building.

It was gathered that the 4-storey Abuja building located at Jabi junction, close to a popular Rukkayat plaza in the Nigerian capital, had been abandoned for over two years before the collapse. The incident occurred by 1:20pm while workers were still at the building. Those trapped include workers, children and food vendors.

Eight people have been rescued so far, while one person lost his life. Among those rescued was the site engineer whose two legs were broken. Here are photos below;
