Policeman dies as burning six-storey building collapses in Lagos

The front section of the six-storey building gutted by fire on Tuesday in Lagos Island has collapsed, killing a policeman at the scene, reports the News Agency of Nigeria.

NAN reports that part of the six-storey building located at 43, Martins Street, Lagos Island, collapsed around 8:30p.m. on Tuesday as firemen continued spirited efforts at extinguishing the inferno.

NAN reports that part of the burning building collapsed on the policeman, severely injuring him while trying to control the surging crowd.

Confirming the death, Special Adviser to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Lagos Central Business District, Mr. Olanrewaju Elegushi, told NAN that the policeman died in hospital following injuries sustained in the building collapse.

Avoid death or danger in the line of duty for Nigeria. That guy is not worth dying for.

Thank God it wasnt tht man i saw ontop of tht roof trying to stop the fire
Honestly, tht man deserves a heros award.

This fire thing needs to be investigated, why now, why south. Those tht laughed when it happened via east how far now.

Injustice or wickedness anywhere is same everywhere. Dnt say its not me.Im not affected.

Rip to the police man, hes someone's son, father, brother and more...

Can someone please tell us about the Name of the great Hero.
He died preventing other people from going into the already weakened structure,many would have died due to the collapse on the Horde of people trying to put out the fire.
Who else think that a National honour and state Compensation should be given to his family?
A typical Nigerian Police won't have done that.
