A two-storey residential apartment collapsed in Abuja on Saturday morning, with several people trapped in the rubble.




The building located beside the popular Cupid Hotel on Cupid Road (Sultan Dasuki Way) in Kubwa was formerly a hotel, Al-Hilal. It later became a hospital, but since the hospital owners quit the premises, it became a residential apartment.


While emergency responders and security personnel were on ground, rescue efforts were hampered as the cranes needed for the rescue were yet to arrive as of 8:45 am, nearly two hours after the incident.


Vanguard gathered that two persons had, however, been rushed to a nearby hospital, while a few others escaped on their own.
