Determined
to end constant building collapse, the Lagos State Government has banned
blockmakers from moulding blocks without obtaining the necessary permit.
The
government identified unprofessional method of moulding of blocks as one of the
reasons behind the collapse of buildings in the state.

Announcing
this to journalists, Lagos State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice,
Ade Ipaye, said the Building and Civil Engineering Materials Quality Control
Laboratory established 2006, would begin enforcement on block moulders.
Ipaye
explained that the law specifically prohibited the production of blocks and
allied products in Lagos State without first obtaining quality control test
certificates from the Laboratory.
He called on property owners, builders and developers
to cooperate with the state government to eliminate incidents of collapsed buildings
in the state by complying with existing laws.
