Even if the curfew had not been shifted, those animals would have still remained there.

They were hell-bent on pushing the government to the wall.

Idiots that were still shouting "End-Sars" upandan like castrated pigs even after the government had announced its disbandment.

Ur tone of language sounds oppressive. They were the most peaceful or organized protesters. Why wud u send the army not even the police to open fire on them? The curfew was shifted so what are the excuses??


Disbandment and the conversion to swat. The government wasn’t honest or listening to what they were demanding. It wasn’t difficult.

Another propaganda from lair Mohammed desk
Who is the US government that says no body died
This was
An Us intelligence officer reply to British high commissioner catriolina
I wonder how BMC twist this

It's sad how too many Nigerians all agree to fool themselves.

Everyone who would truly connect the dots can not say there was no military crack down on innocent civilians on that day...

Sensational Headline at it's best.
It is 2021 and unhealthy propaganda will keep flying!

The US did not absolve the soldiers of the accusations. At least, with the testimony of the Army themselves, we all know that something obviously isn't sitting right.

1. Governor Sanwo Olu claimed he didn't send the Army.

2. The Army claimed Sanwo Olu sent them but that they used only rubber bullets.

3. Then live bullets were seen and investigated. CNN released a report and then, they changed position and claimed they used live bullet only to protect themselves.

4. How about the CCTV footage? Or it was CGI?

Like, do these people take us for fools?

The US did not dispute the claims, they are reporting that the Nigerian Government disputes the claims. The word "Government" in that report is not "US Government" but "Nigerian Government".

Here is the highlight from the report

"On October 20, members of the security forces enforced curfew by firing shots into the air to disperse protesters, who had gathered at the Lekki Toll Gate in Lagos to protest abusive practices by the Nigerian Police Force’s Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS). Accurate information on fatalities resulting from the shooting was not available at year’s end. Amnesty International reported 10 persons died during the event, but the government disputed Amnesty’s report, and no other organization was able to verify the claim. The government reported two deaths connected to the event. One body from the toll gate showed signs of blunt force trauma. A second body from another location in Lagos State had bullet wounds. The government acknowledged that soldiers armed with live ammunition were present at the Lekki Toll Gate. At year’s end the Lagos State Judicial Panel of Inquiry and Restitution continued to hear testimony and investigate the shooting at Lekki Toll Gate."

I'm sorry to tell you that she does not need Nigeria anymore and Canada as a sane country can never do that.

If Canada discovers that she lied , misled millions of people and fled to their county under false pretenses, they can revoke her asylum and have her deported. She should come and explain to us where she kept the over 70 dead bodies and the ones she pulled to the soldier. How was she able to count the number of bodies in the darkness and in the midst of all that chaos? Her false account of what truly happened triggered people into destruction of property. What she did is called treasonable felony and is a jailable offense in any part of the world

if you followed up well then you will see where wounded people were taken to hospitals and some were not lucky! Bodies maybe few where carter away by d military

In DJ Switch's account she claimed that she was among those who carried dead bodies to where the soldiers were standing.

In this day and age where virtually everyone has a camera phone don't you find it strange that there is not even a single pic of this event if it actually happened... not even a blurry pic taken by other protesters at the scene undecided

I doubt if you're really a first class graduate.

You sound so dumb and brainless.

No wonder you couldn't make it while here ... you had to go abroad to "make" it. grin

I might be dumb to you because you are dumb yourself, to be in support of the people stealing your commonwealth. Why would you make it there, where do your footballers make it?, ngozi okonjo, etc, where do they make it?? In Nigeria, only politician, greedy senior civil workers, oil workers make it there and they do so by deals, stealing, no merit, here is merit, if you worth the job they give you, cbn job there, they give slots to high ranks people, is Nigeria a place to showcase yourself apart from music Even them don jazzy, dbanj, Burna,, banky w, were abroad and brought their knowledge Down there.

Many people are still dumb in this country that anything US says in your own land is the ultimate ring of truth.

Most demonstrations during, before and after #ENDSARS, people died. The military said they would do the same thing again at the tribunal abi na enquiry self.

When are you going to accept that Nigeria slaughtered people for any and no reason?

They only negotiate with those that put up formidable resistance. US report my foot.
pls mention the names of the people you are so sure were killed by soldiers in lekki toll gate on that day.Not just saying people were killed.What are their names.We all saw the only video of the shooting posted by the same DJ switch & co and the soldiers were obviously shooting up in the air.What we can be rebuking is why soldiers were drafted but the lies that they shot at people cant just go on forever.The truth will definitely prevail

A little scene......you have 7 people in your compound then soldiers storm there firing shots, 2 people got killed while others escaped then the bodies were taken away. As a brilliant Nairalander you are can you tell me how you will see a corpse at the scene?


Taking away? Are they Chicken? Don't they have families to cry out? This is stale.

Cry out to who exactly? You can only report to police and they will search forever. It will remain stale to you until you experience it firsthand.

Justice will be served. If not now, it will be later. I believe when Nigeria get better, the better rulers then will deem it fit to revisit the #lekkitollgateshooting case.

Let's pray for a better leadership.

cc mynd44 lalasticlala Dominique OAMJ seun for Christ sake this is fake news.

there is no where in the article on https://www.state.gov/reports/2020-country-reports-on-human-rights-practices/nigeria/ that denies the death of as a result of endsars protests as against negeneukwenu post.
please read the article.

the only article that said US doubts lekkimassacre is a Nigerian media that has no affiliation with the USA state government. Even this suppose article never said what the title of this post claimed


please check the link and do the needful

Coward like you that is too submissive to the yoke of oppression is talking trash. Strangers are in your place fighting your wars for you and you can't even put up a common defense in the international court. When Igbos withdrew from 'occupy Lekki' did you people succeed? Didn't they overpower you? Assholes!

At least two people I know of, Abouta Solomon, and brother to one Olufunmi Grace

And even if you claim people were not killed, do you also claim people were not shot? Innocent citizens by their own military

There must be autopsy done so that the liars looking for an excuse to murder Police and burn down Lagos can be silenced for good !!!

That was how some gullible Nigerians believed an absolute lie that Buhari died in London in 2017 and Jubril Al Sudan is the President ruling them now.
