JUST-IN: Victims Of Nnewi Building Collapse Buried At Nimo

The remains of three family members who died in the ill-fated building collapse in Nnewi last month have been buried at Nimo, Njikoka Local Government Area of Anambra State.…CO

The Late Mr. Chizoba Anaefuna, aged forty-eight, and his two sons, Udoka, aged thirteen and nine – year Uzochukwu, lost their lives when a storey building with a pent house collapsed at Egbu Umuenem, Otolo Nnewi, Nnewi North Local Government Area while they were carrying out electrical work in it on September second 2023.

One person, however, survived the incident after he was rescued from the collapsed building, still under construction, and rushed to a hospital in Nnewi.

While some claimed that Mr. Anaefuna was the contractor in-charge of the collapsed building, others who are close to the deceased, including family members, insisted that he was a trained electrical engineer who was on electrical work in the collapsed building.

After ABS broke the news of the unfortunate incident, the Anambra State Police Public Relations Officer, Tochukwu Ikenga, said that police has taken over the scene of the collapsed building, and was working with relevant agencies to uncover what caused the collapse in order to take necessary actions in line with extant laws.


It is not clear if the investigation has been concluded, even as some people say that the case of building collapse is still being treated with kid gloves in the state.


In his sermon at a religious rite for the burial of the dead, Evangelist Chimezie Nwankemmadu from the Ark of God Covenant Church, Nimo, reminded people that life on earth is transient, a reason for total repentance.


Bidding his late father and younger brothers farewell, a fifteen-year-old Master Obinna Anaefuna said that his father was a Pastor and into electrical engineering work in his lifetime, and that he has lost a caregiver and playmates.


Other family members, Church members, friends, teachers and schoolmates who shared fond memories with the deceased said that only God knows why the unfortunate incident happened.
