A worker was rescued alive early this morning, four days after a seven-storey building collapsed at Woji road in New GRA in Port Harcourt, Rivers state. He was rushed to the hospital in an ambulance after being rescued by emergency workers and some Rivers State government officials.

The structure was under construction before the tragic incident which left at least four persons dead, many injured and an unspecified number of workers trapped.

When the building collapsed around 4:30 pm on Friday, November 23, up to 60 persons – mainly construction workers – were said to have been working on it.

Around 7:30 pm, three hours after the collapse, emergency workers had rescued a total of 21 persons from the rubbles.
