An uncompleted building in the Boys Secondary School, Kaura Goje, in Nasarawa Local Government Area of Kano State, collapsed, leaving one student dead and few others injured.
It was reported that the building which has been abandoned for over six years, collapsed during a downpour on Friday, August 5.
The deceased, Mustapha Salisu, alongside other victims were rushed to hospital by the school management, but he was confirmed dead. His mother, Binta Salisu, said she received the shocking news hours after he bid her farewell when he left home for school.
“He told me that he was going to school, but a few hours later we, received the news that the building had collapsed on him,” she said in tears.
An eye witness, Ibrahim Sarki, who assisted in rescuing other victims, said they had raised concerns over the bad condition of the building before it collapsed.
