The Lekki Toll Gate was the epicenter of the protest which led to the destruction of both public and private property worth billions of Naira.

Rejected by the Lagos State Government, Tuesday evening, is the  submission that nine people were shot to death by soldiers. The Government said that is  a product of “assumptions and speculations.”

Recall that Lagos State Counsel, Abiodun Owonikoko, had criticized the leaked report, insisting there were, at least, 42 discrepancies.

The Federal Government  always maintained that the Lekki Tollgate incident was a massacre without bodies.

The #EndSARS protest took place nationwide in October 2020.
