ONE person died while three others were injured when one of the elevators at the Cocoa House, Ibadan, Oyo State, crashed while technicians were working on it.
It was gathered that the faulty elevator collapsed while about four technicians were working to restore it for the use of staff members of Odua Investment Company Limited and other Cocoa House tenants.
While one person was confirmed dead, two others broke their arms and another person broke his legs during the accident.
They have been taken to hospital for medical attention.
Efforts to reach management of Odua Investment Company Limited, the manager of the historic edifice proved abortive as the phone number of the company’s spokesperson was switched off.
However, a source who crave anonymity said the management of the company would speak with journalists very soon.
