Two dead, eight injured from collapsed fence of abattoir in Lagos


Two persons have been confirmed dead from a collapsed fence that took place at the slaughter section of Lagos State abattoir at Oko-Oba.

It was learnt that eight persons who were said to have sustained injuries have been treated and discharged after rushing them to a nearby hospital.


The Divisional Police Officer (DPO) in charge of Abattoir Police Station, CSP Kenneth Iyayi, who confirmed the incident explained that “two people died from the incident while eight others sustained various degrees of injuries from the collapsed building, those that were injured were promptly taken to Merit Hosptal at Oko-Oba and the General Hospital, Ile-Epo in Oke-Odo area of Lagos State for treatment”.


A correspondent of the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) who visited the scene observed that the debris of the collapsed  fence was yet to be cleared while the ‘slaughtering of cows’ business was in progress.


Ishiaku Onatunde, a slaughterhouse worker, said “the fence fell its foundation was weak Ideally, the government should have constructed the fence on a strong foundation knowing that we use a lot of water in our daily routine as slaughterers,”


He further explained that “the workers of the slaughterhouse had met with the management of the abattoir, Harmony Abattoir Investment Limited, to request for compensation for the victims of the collapsed fence.
