Governor Nyesom Wike says he is deeply pained by the disaster of the crashed seven-story building in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State Capital, and has vowed to ensure that appropriate sanctions are taken.
The Governor who just arrived from a foreign trip which was cut short in the wake of the accident explained that he is surprised that approvals were given for the building of a seven-story building on this sort of topography with a promise to get to the bottom of it.
The seven-story building on Woji Road, New GRA in Port Harcourt, collapsed on Friday evening. Six people have died and so far thirty-four rescued as rescue efforts are still on going.
