Osinbajo said"First, I want to say the collapse of this building is very unfortunate incident. As you know, it was a building under construction. I think the most important thing at the moment is that we have all our relief, safety and emergency management agencies all here."
He further said"NEMA is here, the FCT authorities are here, Hon. Minister himself is here, the Executive Government is here. So, the whole process of ensuring that those who may trapped under this collapsed building are rescued is well underway."
