Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Saturday said
the government would conduct mass burials for dead bodies in state’s mortuaries
not evacuated for burial by their families within the next two weeks.
The governor, at a news conference at the State House,
Marina, Lagos said due to Coronavirus, many families had not been able to bury
their dead ones in the last two months, which made the mortuaries to get
filled.
He said there was the need to urgently decongest the
mortuaries at this period and that he was giving families who had loved ones in
the mortuaries the opportunity to bury them following the laid down guidelines.
Sanwo-Olu said he had given two weeks deadline for such
families to evacuate their loved ones from the state-owned mortuaries, saying
that after the expiration, the government would be forced to conduct mass
burials for unclaimed bodies.
