The Labour Party further observed that even “though the victims have been given a mass burial and both the Federal and state government have sent their condolences to the victims’ families,” certain actions must be undertaken.
While noting that, “A sum of N10 million was given by the military for the support of the burial, we however think that the government must pay adequate compensation to these families.
