#EndSARS: Lekki Toll Gate shooting
On October 21, the Army in responding to media reports on the #Lekki shootings via its official Twiter handle @HQNigerianArmy claimed the reports on soldiers shooting the unarmed protesters were false & none of its men was present at the scene.
On October 21, the Army in responding to media reports on the #Lekki shootings via its official Twiter handle @HQNigerianArmy claimed the reports on soldiers shooting the unarmed protesters were false & none of its men was present at the scene.
Seven days later, Major Osoba Olaniyi, Acting Deputy Director, 81 Division @HQNigerianArmy Public Relations, reversed the military’s initial position in a press statement, saying soldiers had been deployed to #Lekki’s toll gate to enforce curfew announced by the @followlasg.
The military’s statement came shortly before @AmnestyNigeria, revealed that its investigation had tracked army vehicles from their #Lagos barracks to #Lekki Toll Gate using photographs and verified videos of the soldiers’ movements that had been posted on social media.
On October 24, @jidesanwoolu, the Lagos State governor said security camera footage obtained from the scene confirmed Nigerian soldiers firing at the peaceful protesters at #Lekki plaza, prior to the army’s admission of its presence at the scene.
