LAGOS, Nigeria—A 21-story apartment building under construction collapsed in an upscale area of Nigeria’s largest city, killing at least six people and leaving dozens more missing.
Lagos Police Commissioner Hakeem Odumosu confirmed the deaths, but added that three survivors had been pulled from the rubble in Ikoyi by Monday evening. Officials arriving at the scene were confronted by crowds of people venting their anger that rescue efforts started several hours after the collapse.
