The judicial panel had averred that the use of heart-rending brute force and war-like violence on hapless and peaceful protesters which led to the death of many was unjustifiable.<\/p>\n<p>The judicial panel affirmed that the casualty of the incident was aggravated because the army refused to allow ambulances and medical help to get to injured protesters who were in need of them. The panel also added that the army stole the corpse of the protesters and wiped blood stains off the scene to hide evidence of its crime and hinder the investigation of the panel.<\/p>\n<p>Chief pathologist of the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH), Professor John Obafunwa, testified before the panel of inquiry that at least 99 bodies were deposited in morgues across Lagos from the EndSars protests, with several of them carrying bullet wounds, some blunt trauma, and some bruises. Of these 99 bodies that were confirmed to be that of protesters, three were successfully traced to have been brought in from the toll gate.<\/p>\n<p>A video investigation published by CNN also corroborated several videos that were taken during the incident and confirmed that the men of the Nigerian Army and police indeed shot directly at protesters using live bullets. Sanwo-Olu has asked citizens to \u201csnap out of the incident,\u201d and build back better but families who lost their loved ones in the incident struggle to find closure in the face of the government\u2019s suppression of the truth<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The state government engaged the service of Messrs Tos Funeral Ltd, a private firm, at the cost of
