One of the bricklayers from last Wednesday’s seven-storey building collapse in Banana Island, Lagos, Mr. Dike Ikenna has recounted how he walked out of the rubbles unscratched.

 

Narrating his ordeal, Ikenna while fielding questions said: ”I thank God for his mercies. I usually anoint myself every day before going out to work, and this very day, I did likewise.

 

“I was on the 7th floor when It happened. I just said God, you didn’t tell me I will die this way or this was how I will end my life.

 

“While some of the victims were taken to hospitals due to the severity of their injuries and doctors pulling them out of the jaws of death, I thank God that I walked out of the rubbles without any scratch,” he added.
