Owner of the collapsed Lagos building, Femi Osibona has been found dead.
Osibona’s company, Fourscore Homes Limited is responsible for the construction of the 21-storey building that collapsed in Ikoyi on Monday.
Rescue workers confirmed his corpse was recovered from the rubble on Thursday’s evening.
There have been concerns over the whereabouts of Osibona, Wale Bob-Oseni, his friend, and others trapped in the building.
Bob-Oseni, who was to catch a flight to the US, briefly made a detour to see the project on the invitation of the developer but did not walk out alive.
While nine people were rescued, over 30 have been confirmed dead.
The corpse of Osibona’s personal assistant was recovered two days ago.
The collapsed building was initially approved as a 15-storey facility but the developer went on to add more storeys.
The Lagos State government had since set up a panel of inquiry to unravel the cause of the incident, while adding that those responsible for the structural defect would be prosecuted.
