collapsed.
The incident occurred when some students of the institution were
reportedly reading in the building which is being constructed by the
Tertiary Education Trust Fund, an intervention agency in the Nigerian
education sector.
The spokesperson of the institution, Abdullahi Abdullahi, confirmed the incident to PREMIUM TIMES.
He however said it was a minor incident and that the school authorities had already taken action on it.
Mr. Abdullahi also denied reports that there was no excavator to
evacuate the rubble and that about five of them were drafted to the
scene.
This newspaper leant that some of the students of the institution had
always preferred to read in the building even though it was still under
construction.
