The Nigeria Labour Congress has called on the Federal Government to ensure the conduct of a transparent investigation into the tragic building collapse at the Synagogue Church of All Nations which resulted in the death of about 115 worshippers.

The NLC, in a statement by its Head of Media, Mr. Benson Upah, said only a thorough probe of the incident would avail Nigerians and other concerned people the opportunity of knowing what actually happened at the Lagos church.

Upah explained that the probe was necessary because the family members of those who died in the collapsed guest house should know the truth about the incident.

He added that such a probe would prevent similar incidents in the future.

According to him, if the probe is not conducted thoroughly, it can affect the image of the country.

He said, The collapse of the building belonging to the Synagogue Church of All Nations Lagos which left 115 dead is a familiar but painful and avoidable tragedy.

It is an occurrence Nigeria can ill-afford. Accordingly, we at the Nigeria Labour Congress call for a professional and transparent probe capable of laying bare all the facts.

By so doing, we will not only be putting to rest all the speculations, we will be preventing similar tragedies waiting to happen.
