Though no lives are reported lost, a man trapped inside the building was succesfully rescued by emergency workers.
The Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA) cites structural stress and a lack of routine maintenance as reasons for the collapse.
With emergency operations ongoing, the site of accident and its immediate areas have been cordoned off.
