The COREN President, Prof. Sadiq Abubakar, noted, “The committee will drive the engineering regulations monitoring at the national level, similar to the existing practice at regional and state levels. This will ensure effective monitoring and enforcement of engineering regulations to prevent infrastructure failures.”
In Nigeria, infrastructure failure is characterised by recurring building collapses, among others the National Technical Committee would address this by enforcing engineering regulations and ensuring only qualified engineers are engaged in construction projects.
Nigeria has witnessed several building collapses, leading to the loss of lives and property.
Abubakar stated that the committee’s inauguration was a response to the call on COREN to address the incessant failures of engineering infrastructure across the country.
