There is currently chaos at a market in Kano State following a building collapse which has reportedly trapped traders.
The building is reportedly within the popular GSM Bairut road market and is still under construction, with workers, traders and even passersby inside as at the time of the collapse.
A witness who
escaped the tragedy told our correspondent that the building is a three-storey
building with the first and second floors already completed and housing
traders.
He said on their part
over one hundred persons sell GSM phones in the building, others who sell food
and those who rest under the shade of the building.
Another trader
claimed there could be over one hundred persons under the rubble of the
collapsed building.
Already a rescue
mission is underway, with a joint team of Police, Civil Defense and other
paramilitary outfits on ground.
As of the time of
this report, only three people were said to have escaped unhurt.
