Two die as building collapses in Akure this morning

2 people have been confirmed dead after a building under construction collapsed early this morning around 7 in Akure, Ondo State. Reports say the building which was to be used as a boarding house for a private school, came crumbling down as workers on the site arrived to begin the day's job. Two teenagers died in the incident while two others sustained injuries and have been rushed to the hospital for medical attention
 
Residents in the area say the area is a swampy one and it could be that the foundation of the building was not well done and this  led to its collapse
