The Lagos State Government has said that its Chief Coroner’s invitation to the public to come for the identification of the corpses of missing persons between October 19 and 27, 2020, has to do with victims of cultists and hoodlums’ killings, and not with the Lekki tollgate incident.
The state government noted that there is no connection between the announcement and the Lekki tollgate, where some protesters were feared killed or missing.

The state Chief Coroner, Justice M. A. Dada, had on Wednesday, called for the identification of missing persons between October 19 and 27, 2020 – the same period when youths embarked on a nationwide #EndSARS protest which led to violence, arson and killings.

The state Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr Gbenga Omotoso, said in an interview with our correspondent on Friday, that the identification of bodies was meant for victims of cultists and hoodlums’ killings, and not of the Lekki tollgate which had attracted both local and global outrage.

He said, “On the announcement by the Chief Coroner that people should come and identify their dead relatives is a routine matter; it has nothing to do with what happened in Lekki. There is a law that you cannot bury anybody without a coroner’s inquest. You agree that even before Lekki, people were already being killed. Cultists were on the rampage in Ikorodu, Surulere, on Ikorodu Road and so many other places in Lagos. Also, policemen were being killed.

“There was anarchy. So the bodies that were picked up at the scene of all of these killings and fighting are the ones that the coroner is asking Lagos residents to come and identify. If it is Lekki that they say the government is trying to cover up, there is no way the government would now go out to newspapers to ask people to come and look at dead bodies.”

There was no massacre at Lekki, please let us stop all these exaggeration.

The annoying thing is that people will start doing, remembrance day for a massacre that never happened.

Then allow their relative to access the register and who signed for their deposit at the morgue and possible autopsy instead of forcing your opinions on them,
Heart less people I have never seen a desperate people like this taken over all institutions including health and judiciary

Hoodlums? thank God u validated this suspicion... Now question is; which hoodlums?? the ones govt sent to disrupt a peaceful protest(sure u killed none of them-ur hirelings).. or the endsars protesters u provoked into violence after ur lekki shooting/killings... u beat me & I cry, then u turn around to torture & kill me for shedding tears..

Anyone that protested after SARS has been disbanded is a hoodlum.

lies from the pit of hell

When has it become the responsibility of the government to announce to the public to come claim the bodies of cultists, hoodlums? Thought they are used as cadavers by medical students? Yeah! Hoodlums like these.

Damnnn niggarrrr
Isoright ...
If that is the case only dead bodies brought in before and after the endsars protest should be released to their families
But the bodies during that endsars protest should especially that of 20 10 2020 should not be released untill this whole investigation is over

Ogun go kee Una...u killed innocent people and still call them cultists

Hmmmm

They are changing topics

I never knew medical autopsy could reveal lifestyle of bodies. That's remarkably remarkable.

We keep saying it. This whole Lekki mascara is a fake news and propaganda

“Be the change that you wish to see in the world.
Never doubt that small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.
Change is painful, but nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don’t belong.
Those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.

I don't know why some people are so desperate to see dead bodies.

As for me, seeing Nigerians being killed is a national tragedy. But some wicked people see it as joy so that they can have mouth to attack the government they hate so much.

Why are some people so wicked and desperate to see your their fellow country men dying.

Report and evidence that there are no casualties from the incident that happened in lekki should be a good news to everyone. but some wicked people see it as bad news, they want people to die so they can continue their blame game. Some even went ahead to wish their fellow country men who are still alive dead by posting their pictures with "RIPs"

Anyway , anyone ( the goverment, the army, the wicked people of Nigeria) trying to cover up or over emphasize what is not, Will be exposed IJN

Tagging Innocent protesters killed by the military Hoodlums and cultist is unacceptable !

I guess as much...

Shame to all the miscreants spreading fake news.the military did not shoot at the stubborn protesters.Like i always pray,may God disgrace and punish all those behind/ supporting this fake news on lekki toll gate before the end of this year.AMEN AMEN!!!

Bloody liars! Always twisting the narrative.

You'll forever be guessing since the only thing in your head is the 20k you're collecting for doing the devils work, posting misinformation everywhere. Ewu!

Yenefer:

Mascara? They employed nitwits to spread misinformation. What folly! Online hoodlums.


Meanwhile, who is investigating the case of these hoodlums? We have not heard anything about that.

Please, you people should release the corpse of "cultist and hoodlums" killed at Lekki toll gate on the 20th of October.

Useless people

God will judge y’all

Liars


Rip to our innocent warriors
May God grant all the protesters that lost their lives peaceful eternal rest...

Lol, awọn weyrey oni yeye.
Who bothers to claim body of cultists or hoodlums from the govt?
Why not Kuku make the register a public document so we can all easily access details of the body and who deposited them.

Another talk

The Truth must prevail

No matter how u try to maneuver it
