Protesters Block Lekki Toll Gate For ENDSARS Memorial by DyshApp: 6:35pm On Oct 20, 2023 |
There is heavy presence of police officers at the Lekki tollgate in Lagos for the third anniversary of the #EndSARS protest. The memorial walk was organised to commemorate the tollgate shooting during the nationwide #EndSARS protests of 2020. On October 20, 2020, security operatives reportedly fired live rounds into a crowd of unarmed young persons who had converged on the tollgate to protest decades of police brutality. The death toll from the incident remains inconclusive and varied, three years later. At the moment, a plethora of police officers attached to the Lagos police command are at the Lekki tollgate to forestall a breakdown of law and order. Eight #EndSARS protesters – Segun Adeniyi, Onuorah Odih, Jeremiah Lucky, Gideon Ikwujomah, Irinyemi Olorunwanbe, Quadri Azeez, Olamide Lekan and Sadiq Riliwan – have been detained without trial in Ikoyi Medium Security Correctional Centre in Lagos since 2020. “All those detained solely for taking part in peaceful #EndSARS protests must be released immediately and unconditionally,” said Isa Sanusi Torture in detention “The demands of the protesters were clear and compelling as they mainly asked for: Immediate release of all arrested protesters; Justice for all deceased victims of police brutality and appropriate compensation for their families; Establishment of an independent body to oversee the investigation and prosecution of all reported police misconduct within 10 days; Follow up with Niger politics here Come be a part of our FixNigeria community, where you can keep up with the latest updates, connect with like-minded people, and work together to make a real difference.
