The Lagos State Government has begun DNA test to identify bodies of victims of the Synagogue Church building collapse. The government called for DNA samples from relatives of the deceased to be able to sort out the dead bodies before releasing them to their loved ones for burial.
The government said relatives and family members of victims, both locally and internationally, must come forward to donate samples for the test.
Commissioner for Health, Dr Jide Idris who disclosed this on Friday at Alausa, Lagos, said early submission of samples would aid forensic identification and DNA analysis of recovered bodies. Emergency rescue officials put the death toll of the incident at 115.
