There are indications that the Lagos State House of Assembly may summon government officials to answer questions in relation to the recent collapse of a multi-storey building in the Ikoyi area of the State.

This follows a visit to the site of the tragedy by a team of lawmakers led by the Chairman of the House Committee on Physical Planning and Urban Development.

Akinsanya, who said the team was at the site on the instruction of the Speaker, Rt. Hon. (Dr) Mudashiru Obasa, told journalists that the delegation would present a report on its findings to the House and those concerned could be invited.
