Tuesday, September 8, 2026 - A three-storey commercial building in Wuse Zone 4, Abuja, collapsed on Monday September 7, hours after officials of the FCT Administration’s Development Control Department reportedly sealed the structure and ordered occupants to vacate the premises.
The collapse, which occurred in the evening, triggered a
rescue operation involving emergency responders, including men of the FCT Fire
Service.
The FCT Emergency Management Department (FEMD) said it
received a distress call concerning the incident at about 7:20 pm and
immediately mobilised emergency personnel to the scene.
FEMD said eyewitnesses initially reported no casualties, but
stressed that search-and-rescue operations were still ongoing as emergency
responders worked to assess the situation at the site.
