Relatives were to undergo DNA tests for identification purposes,\u201d Sanwo-Olu said.<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cIt is important to state categorically that nobody responded to claim any of the bodies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a letter titled \u201cMass Burial for 103, The Year 2020 Endsars Victims,\u201d seen by Peoples Gazette and dated July 19 by Lagos State public procurement agency, the state government engaged the service of Messrs Tos Funeral Ltd, a private firm, at the cost of N61,285,000 to bury 103 bodies, which were identified to be victims of the killings.<\/p>\n<p>Following an outburst over the memo, Ogboye said Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu approved mass burial for victims to decongest the state morgue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter almost three years, the bodies remain unclaimed, adding to the congestion of the morgues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis spurred the need to decongest the morgues \u2013 a procedure that follows very careful medical and legal guidelines in the event that a relative may still turn up to claim a lost relative years after the incident,\u201d the permanent secretary said.<\/p>\n<p>The state government also claimed that those pencilled for mass burial were victims picked up on the streets in different local government areas across the state during the violence that characterised the aftermath of the protest.<\/p>\n<p>Sanwo-Olu said none of the 103 victims was killed at Lekki Tollgate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the records, the Lagos State Environmental Health Unit (SEHMU) picked up bodies in the aftermath of #EndSARS violence and community clashes at Fagba, Ketu, Ikorodu, Orile, Ajegunle, Abule-Egba, Ikeja, Ojota, Ekoro, Ogba, Isolo and Ajah areas of Lagos State, including a jailbreak at Ikoyi Prison. The 103 casualties mentioned in the document were from these incidents and NOT from Lekki Toll-gate as being alleged.
