The Lagos State Government has disclosed its plan to deploy the use of forensic science by law enforcement to tackle crime in the state.

According to a statement on Sunday, the state Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr Moyosore Onigbanjo, said this during his address at the beginning of the sixth edition of the Lagos Forensic symposium organised by the Ministry of Justice in collaboration with Lagos State DNA and Forensic Centre.

Moyosore highlighted the importance of forensic science to the criminal justice system through its speedy identification and conviction of criminals and the exoneration of innocent persons.

He said, “With the ever-evolving crime patterns, the Lagos State Government is committed to upscaling its penchant for innovations to make Lagos a safer place to live, work and visit.

“The recognition of the vital role of forensic analysis in the fight against crime has led to the establishment of the Lagos State DNA and Forensic Centre to support the investigations conducted by the Nigeria Police and other law enforcement agencies.

“The Forensic Centre was inaugurated in September 2017 while the Lagos State Forensic Biology/DNA unit and the DNA Database and Matching system attained ISO 17025:2017 accreditation in February 2019.

“This symposium will provide up-to-date information on how forensic science is applied in criminal investigations, law enforcement, mass fatalities, sexual assault, wildlife trafficking and other related matters in Lagos State.”
