This is coming after a young lady of 30 was killed in Lagos after a water tank collapsed into her apartment when she was sleeping.

He said he raised the alarm and reported the matter to the landlord of the compound. After reporting, he discovered that the technician who did the bad job was angry with him.

The man, who spoke in Yoruba language said:

"Is the scaffold someone will put a water tank on? See the way it is shaking. A few days ago, that was how a water tank crushed a lady to death. Look at where the welder joined the iron. Is this the proper way to do it? ...I reported to the owner of the house that I can't put a tank on this weak thing. The welder is now vexing that I am spoiling his work; that I should have called him to report the weak scaffold to him instead of the landlord. Look at the way the scaffold is shaking, let's always consider the safety of our client."
