A man who claims to be one of the bricklayers at the site when it collapsed has shared the heartwarming story of how he walked out from the rubbles unscathed.
The man, who identified himself as Mr. Dike Ikenna, gave his testimony on Sunday, April 16th, during a service at the Living Faith Church in Ota, Ogun State.
He recounted the incident and said:
“I thank God for his mercies. I usually anoint myself every day before going out to work and this very day, I did likewise.
“I was on the 7th floor when It happened. I was taping the floor when I heard a deafening noise. One side of the building collapsed first. I just said God, you didn’t tell me I will die this way or this was how I will end my life.
“One of my colleagues was with me. We were struggling to get out of the building. But we could not jump, we could not run out. I was only shouting Jesus. I found myself on the ground. But nothing hit me. I was covered in dust.”
