In a statement by the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr Gbenga Omotoso, the State Government warned developers to strictly adhere to building laws in the state.

“Governor Sanwo-Olu thanks the Commissioner for his services to the State and wishes him success in his future endeavours.

“The Governor warns all players in the sector to respect the law or face the consequences of any indiscretion, no matter who the perpetrators are,” Omotoso said.

The collapsed building was under construction when it caved in, killing people in the process.

The state government had ordered the arrest of the developer and other professionals working on the building.

They were said to be liable for their disregard for the planning laws of the state, having embarked on construction without a laid planning permit and ignoring official warnings against continuing the building works.
