Mr. Ibrahim, a spokesman for the National Emergency Management Agency, says voices have been heard from beneath the rubble of the 21-story building that collapsed in Ikoyi, Lagos State, on Monday, November 1, and that rescue efforts are underway.

In an interview with Arise TV this morning, Ibrahim said:

''Yesterday night we were able to recover another body. We now have five alive, four dead. We had a little break of about one to two hours. By the time we woke up, we were hearing voices underground and that is what we are now trying to do. The heavyweight on top, we want to bring them down to get to them. We have isolated their locations already and we are trying to get to them''
