The IGP approved that relief funds be paid to the families of those who lost their lives, while those who are still undergoing treatment in the hospital or have been discharged would be paid directly.

Egbetokun approved the compensatory payment of ten million naira (₦10,000,000) to the families of the deceased, two million naira (₦2,000,000) to those still receiving treatment and the sum of five hundred thousand naira (₦500,000) to those who have been discharged after treatment.
