Details later…
Recalls that the protest is to seek an end to police brutality in Nigeria and also an end to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), a notorious unit of the Nigerian Police with a long record of abuses which rocked major cities and states in Nigeria.
The protest in its wake, left many Nigerians injured and some dead when men in army uniform stormed the Lekki toll gate camping ground of the Lagos protesters, opening fire on the peaceful protesters who were waving the Nigerian flag
Though the Nigerian Army had denied ever being involved in the said incident, however, video evidence shows otherwise, with the Army later admitting that its men were at the toll gate. The Nigerian Army confirmed this during the sitting of the Lagos judicial panel on police brutality.
The death recorded at the Lekki toll gate which had since been described as a massacre by some, led to the end of the protest nationwide.
