Kwara State Government to Conduct Mass Burial for Unclaimed Corpses

Date: 2024-12-09

The Kwara State Government has announced plans to conduct a mass burial for unclaimed corpses at its primary hospital, the Kwara State University Teaching Hospital in Ilorin.

This decision follows the overcrowding of the hospital morgue, located near the main roundabout on Taiwo Road, which can no longer accommodate additional bodies.

The government has issued a two-week notice, urging members of the public to claim any unclaimed bodies before the planned burial. After the deadline, all remaining corpses will be interred in a mass burial ceremony.

Officials have emphasized that the move is necessary to decongest the facility and maintain public health standards.

Head Corporate Affairs of the Teaching Hospital,Yakub Aliagan in a statement, yesterday, said: “The management of Kwara State University Teaching Hospital, Ilorin, wishes to announce to the general public that its mortuary is filled beyond capacity with no available space due to unclaimed bodies.

“The management, therefore, implores the general public to come and retrieve the bodies of their relatives and loved ones within the next two weeks from the time of this announcement, after which the management will consider decongestion through mass burial.”

Vanguard gathered that the unclaimed corpses in the hospital have been in the morgue, some for upwards of ten years.

Further findings revealed that the corpses were those that were deposited at the hospital from several scenes of robbery, and auto crashes.
