Ogunfuwa’s friend, Omotosho Shola Emmanuel, who confirmed this, said the church is praying and hoping he’s rescued alive.

“I am here this morning because one of my pastor friends is working here, he is an engineer. He came with about 22 people all the way from Ibafo (Ogun State) to work here; labourers, bricklayers, welders, about 22 different guys that came together with him to work on the project.

Till now, out of those that have been rescued, we’ve not seen any of those 22 and he himself is still there because we learned that yesterday (Monday), at break time, he came out to eat but as he was about washing his hands to eat, he was summoned by one of his bosses and he went back inside but about five to 10 minutes later, the building collapsed and he was trapped. He is still there now and we pray that God will have his way upon those still there.
