Well on who to blame, didn't she see that she was about renting a house under the tank before going further.
I once lived in a house in which a part of my bedroom is very close to the overhead tank. The only reason why I endured the fear of unforseen circumstances was that my apartment was downstairs. I felt any harm would start from top to bottom! grin
Thank God nothing happened sha.

When I was studying mathematics physics we calculated the impact a watermelon would have if it landed on a person on a free fall. The result shows death! How much more water tank over 10 ft above ground level. RIP to the dead. Instead of STEM we do more of religion in Africa.

Reminds me of a youtube short by Zach D. Films about a woman who had a tree fall on her as she slept at night, rendering her unable to move as the branches kept her trapped to her bed, until emergency responders arrived to haul it off her. That woman was incredibly lucky. RIP to the deceased.

The force of let say 3 Gp tank of 1000 liters each in a hieght of 30fts can bring down a storey building.
There is indeed a 1000ways to die.

Pls define this concrete slab pls? How does it look?
For those using steels(scaffold), how many years will it take to change it, so it won't be too weak and old.
Hopez456:
May her soul rest in peace. Upon investigation, I won't be shocked if the scaffold is made of these substandard steels all in a bid to cut costs. At least, if you can afford strong and heavy load bearing steel the landlord or however in charge should have considered concrete slab.

Poor Lady! She must have died a painful death. Though death Na death (all types no coming back) but her own can be imagined to be a painful one because she must have been awaken and went through a painful crushing before dying. The Landlord, the Contractor and the Engineer must be held responsible.

You see those overhead tanks erected so close to the roofs of buildings...! SMH!


Everything goes in Nigeria.

How we don't have building inspectors who should certify a house safe for living in this country simply beggars belief.


Naija wahala just too many abeg.

What is the possible cause of over-head tank falling or crushing down?

Where should water tank be positioned in a building?
samwash:
Something like this happen in my house last year, the overhead tank from the next compound fell into my compound, it only brake our fence, almost broke into the room and it happens in the middle of the night, nobody saw it coming, it was a full tank of water. Thank God no one sleep in that room.
This is an unfortunate incident.

She does no wrong thing but the builder is the evil person, which means there was no rod in the concrete and it's done with sand only

Of course, but I was correcting the idiot that claimed the victim is a Yoruba girl when the victim is clearly Igbo.

That's all.
