Around 40 people are reportedly trapped under the rubble of a collapsed building in Sabon Lugbe, a suburb of Abuja.

The collapse occurred around 5 PM on Saturday while victims were still inside.

Multiple videos shared on social media, especially on X, show residents trying to rescue those trapped beneath the debris.

As of this report, it remains unclear whether emergency services have arrived to assist in the rescue efforts. Our correspondent was unable to contact Nkechi Isa, Head of Public Affairs for the FCT Emergency Management Department, despite several attempts.
