Ann Iwelue, a sister to a man, Samuel Iwelue, trapped in the debris from the Ikoyi building collapse has shared the last video he made while entering the structure on Monday, November 1.

In the video, Samuel looked so happy as he drove into the compound. He complained about the heat in Nigeria and how the air conditioner in the car wasn’t cooling due to the hot temperature in Lagos.

Samuel Iwelu is said to have come to Nigeria for a wedding in Abuja. There he met the developer, his friend who told him of a massive structure he was constructing in Lagos. They flew to Lagos to see the construction. Sadly, that was the last time anyone heard from Samuel.

Ann in some videos she shared queried the manner in which the rescue team was carrying out on the operation. According to her, what they were doing was a demolition as it gives no chances for any survivor to be rescued.

”Please people help…..

is this how an recuse mission should go?
–
This is no longer a rescue mission this a demolition. What are the chances anyone would survive. We are killing potential survivors like this.
–
Please I need help, my brother may be in there. I can’t watch this anymore. I can’t speak enough because I don’t want them to stop but they need to change this approach, you are pulling things over anyone caved in head.

Please help me post and repost again. I need experts my brother is a survivor but we they are making his fighting chance slimmer.” she wrote

She also shared a video on her page alleging that the rescue team had no clue on how to use the life detector machine.

”These are the rescue team yesterday trying to figure out how to use the life detector on day 3 at 3:34pm, they didn’t get to use it. This is exhausting I need them to change their approach @jidesanwoolu a tactile approach should have been used…

My brother is a fighter!!!!”
