The Lagos State Government on Sunday expressed its readiness to build a DNA Forensic Laboratory within 15 months.
The state Commissioner for Science and Technology, Mr Olufemi Odubiyi, made the disclosure at the ministerial briefing marking the one year anniversary of Gov. Akinwunmi Ambode.
Odubiyi said the government was working with the State Ministry of Justice to commence the laboratory to ensure that the criminal justice system caught all criminals.
The laboratory, would be located at CMS area within the city of Lagos. This is great news if carried out, it would really help with so many crimes that are unsolved and would put fear in some criminals not to commit crime for fear of being detected, but how many Nigerians have their DNA in the database of the country?
