Many are feared trapped as a building under construction collapsed in one of the GSM markets in Kano State on Tuesday.
The building is on Beirut road, a very busy area in Kano.
An eyewitness report said some people were inside the building when it caved in.
The voice of one of the trapped victims could be heard when he was called on the phone, one the eyewitnesses.
“We just called his number and he is picking calls. Only that there is no way for him to escape,”the eyewitness said.
At the time of filing this report, a rescue team member who got to the scene early, said an excavator was on its way to the place to boost efforts to rescue all the trapped victims.
This development is coming less than a week after a building under construction in Abuja collapsed, leaving two persons dead.
