Oyogist has learned that a Nigerian man identified as Innocent Amos has narrated how he Escaped the Gerrard Terraces building before it collapsed.
Amos, a graduate who works as a bricklayer, said he was working on the 12th floor and had just stepped out to get more plaster to continue working.
He says he then noticed a “cracking sound” while standing close to a pillar and he quickly ran away as the 21-storey building came crumbling down.
