St. Nicholas hospital has debunked circulating reports that one Folorunsho Olabisi who was allegedly shot at by soldiers in the Lekki Tollgate shooting was found dead in a morgue in its Lekki branch.
The hospital said that it does not have a morgue. It also said that the information being circulated was false.
In a statement it released, yesterday, it said, “We fully identify with the current situation and our sympathy is with the victims of the unfortunate incident. However, false information, especially at this critical time, should not be encouraged.
Please note that the said victim was never presented at any of St. Nicholas Hospital facilities. Also, St. Nicholas Hospital does not have a mortuary, hence this news is false and should not be encouraged to trend further.”
The late Olabisi was alleged to be one of the young protesters among the 22 persons missing after the shooting at the Lekki Tollgate on Tuesday night. He as supposedly buried, Sunday.
