The University for Development Studies is set to form a committee to investigate the collapse of a six storey building at its city campus.
The Vice Chancellor announced this after the university's management team visited the site.
The team which will comprise experts in construction will be expected to come out with their findings in the shortest possible time.

Director of Communication of the University, Abdul Hayi Moomen, who disclosed this in an interview, said the committee would look into the cause of the collapse and make recommendations on the other six storey that is still standing.
One of the twin six storey buildings of the university's city campus under construction collapsed last Saturday after a heavy downpour.
Residents of the area said they heard loud noise only to realise the building had collapsed.

Mr. Moomen said an audit of the other six storey still standing would be done to ensure its structural integrity.
He added that the investigation would also look at the safety of the building for its continuation.
Mr. Moomen said it was early days yet for any conclusion to be drawn on the cause.
"It is early days yet for anyone to confirm exactly what caused the building to collapse. We will be patient and the committee that will be named subsequently, tomorrow, will finish their work and come out with their report" he said.

He said the committee's report will be shared with the university community.
The Director of Communication said the facility was meant to serve as lecture halls.
"The building was mainly expected to be used for lecture halls. There were huge lecture halls in there with the sitting capacity of maybe up to 340 [capacity], some of the lecture halls [had a] 150 [capacity] and a few offices. Unfortunately, all that is gone," he said.
He said the university has a challenge when it comes to infrastructure, adding that it was the hope of the university that the facility when completed would augment the infrastructure challenge.
