Megamound Investment Limited, a property development firm has rebutted the news making the rounds in some sections of the social media alleging that a two-storey building that collapsed on Tuesday January 29, 2025 at the Ikota area of Ajah is located in its estate.
Olumide Osunsina, managing director/ chief executive officer of Megamound said in a statement that such information is “alarming and misleading”, stressing that the firm “maintains the highest standards of safety and quality in construction in all our projects”.
“We categorically confirm that no building within Lekky County Homes collapsed and not at any time before. Upon further investigation, we were to ascertain that the incident involving a building collapse is entirely unrelated to our estate and pertains to a structure located far outside our Lekky County Homes Estate.

“Any individual or entity found disseminating misleading or defamatory statements regarding the issue may be subject to legal action, including but not limited to claims for defamation, damages and other legal remedies available under the law”
