President Muhammadu Buhari has expressed
concern over the incessant building collapses across the country, warning that
those responsible for such incidents of professional negligence will feel the
full wrath of the law.
The president gave the warning when he received
the leadership of the Nigerian Institute of Quantity Surveyors (NIQS), led by
Obafemi Onashile, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on Tuesday
According to the president, the dark days of
impunity are gone for good.
He assured Nigerians that his administration
would remain focused and committed to creating an inclusive and diversified
economy.
He told members of the Institute that the
recent tragic incident in Lagos, and many others across the country, were a
reminder of the need to strictly adhere to quality standards on construction
projects.
‘‘Young innocent lives must never be lost due
to incompetence and greed. Simply put, no corners must be cut.
“I want to assure you that those responsible
for such incidents of professional negligence will feel the full wrath of the
law,’’ he said.
