Race to find survivors as dozens still missing in Lagos collapse

A high-rise building under construction collapsed in Nigeria's commercial capital Lagos on Nov. 1, killing at least four people with dozens more feared trapped inside the rubble.

A yellow excavator pushed away concrete slabs to search through the wreckage of the 21-floor building in Lagos's wealthy Ikoyi residential and business district, AFP correspondents at the scene said.
