Shortly after the memo was leaked, Nigerians dragged the government for lying that no one died at the Lekki tollgate. They insisted that the bodies to be buried were retrieved from the Lekki tollgate where some military men were sent in to disperse the protesting youths.

The state government while reacting to the memo, said that nobody died at the Lekki tollgate and that the 103 bodies to be buried were recovered form other parts of the state that witnessed one form of crisis or the other during the EndSARS saga. 

In the interview he granted, Omotoso said anyone linking the mass burial to the Lekki tollgate is showing signs of post-election hallucination, He insists the state government is not lying with its position that no one died at the Lekki tollgate on October 20, 2020.
