A sad incidence that occurred
in Edo State in Nigeria left three young children dead. It took place on last
Friday in a building located along Ashimota Street in Benin. According to the
news gathered by Unique Information
the affected were two boys and a girl between the age of 15, 7, and 9
respectively.
The female is said to be a house help, while the other two boys
are the children of a sports chief in the state. This is pitiable incidence as
the parents of the affected weep seriously as they have the ones they loved
with all their hearts dead.
What could be the cause
of the collapsing of the building? It is not a new thing to hear about the
collapse of buildings in Nigeria because the Nigerian civil engineers do not
make construction with quality materials. Instead of making use of the whole
money given to them for a particular construction, what they do is to buy cheap
materials in other to maximize profit. This is one of the faces of corruption
in the country. Sometimes those who want to own houses do not issue enough
money to the engineers for the construction.
