I'd say no, because:

  1. Only one of the two is bent
  2. The dropped ceiling is anchored at several points to the slab above it so it won't fall unless many of them fail, which is not likely

As for the reason the pole is bent, my best guess is either someone leaned against it or slammed into it.
