The news of the collapse of a 21 story building in Ikoyi, Lagos has been spreading like wide fire and search teams are frantically searching for victims in the rubbles.
One of the persons whose whereabouts still remain unknown and state of wellbeing yet to be practically determined with a measure of finality is Femi Osibona, the Chief/Executive of Fourscores Heights Limited, Gerrad, Ikoyi, Lagos.
A school of thought has concluded that Femi Osibona has been crushed in the collapsed building because, by the time the building collapsed, the Chief Executive of Firstscore Heights Limited was seen within the building.
Another school of thought is not unhoped that Osibona might still be alive, because his body has not be found, even if he was said to be inside the building. They hold on to the belief that there chances for him to have survived, and pray fervently that he should be found alive.
Aare Akinrogun of Ikenne land, in Remo Division of Ogun State, Shola Shodiyan narrated he was on voice calls Osibona several times yesterday, for a long time before, saying by the time they ended, he promised to call back by 2.00 PM.
Shodiyan stressed further that he was still expecting his call when the news of the collapse of the building broke out, adding that all he had was that 4score as Osibona was fondly called was on the 18th floor of the building.
