You posted error ridden report to prove that there are no errors. You practically nailed yourself with your own proof. Where is the sense in that?

The panel admitted in their report and the same report you posted that they did not investigate and they did not obtain any forensics or crime scene evidence.

Read the rubbish before posting to prove to people that you actually know how to read and comprehend.

Niorte:


Bro, this is Nigeria. I won't be surprised if someone has been paid to give provide false information to the panel so they may use the same false information to discredit the report.

Panel only acted based on what they were told. We should be asking Mr Solomon whether he was at the panel and gave the true report...only then can we know what to say.


Also LEKKI TOLL might be written being the incident that excited the killings in the said location

joyandfaith:


I haven't seen any reasonable persons who complain about the report.
People that are matters are ok with it.

dlondonbadboy:


Hiding? Lol. What a lowlife. Nobody is bullying you. We are just telling you to stop being a fool.

plaindealer:


You mean reasonable people are too dumb to spot basic and glaring errors or just can not read and comprehend?

Obviously, the people you know are not the reasonable type.

joyandfaith:


That is the reason foolish and unreasonable people cannot rubbish the report openly , only in faceless forum.

FreeStuffsNG:
It takes a reasonable and intelligent person to identify and expose the rubbish in the report. The OP didn't write the report and his disappointment is majorly in the elitist panel that is now under scrutiny. These are serious issues o. It's far more serious than you think by the time the white paper comes out and these falsehoods in the 'report ' are regurgitated. He has identified 3 people who have no business with Lekki or probably non existent the report cited were killed at Lekki and on that basis drew its conclusion. In logic, if it's true then it's valid thst your conclusion is from your premiss. I really do hope it is a fake report the OP is quoting but if not, the panel members are at the risk of being sued and probably prosecuted. Remember Farouk Lawan case.

joyandfaith:


Let us wait and see.
I have been searching online to see any vip who has rubbish the report.
The truth is that people would always find fault. The panel has terms of reference and worked on them satisfactorily. Mind you lagos state government sponsored the panel and paid for all autopsies done.

Tochj:
Enough of this stories
Did soldiers shoot innocent youths at toll gate or not.
Some people are so demonic
You are here defending soldiers
This is not the 1st time
We had lots of massacres in the past
And were swept under the carpet.

Where is Kelli?

dlondonbadboy:


At least you know what I’m talking about...Na why you graduate with 3rd class be this..

plaindealer:



According to him, the shooting incident took place around the Alade Market in Shomolu, not far from the bus stop, but the ENDSARS panel switched the location where he sustained the injury to Lekki toll gate.

This report is an embarrassment, a total disaster, injury upon injury.

I hope and pray that they did not get paid for this ridiculous and absurd disaster of a report.

This is what you get when you sit in your air-conditioned office to listen to den say den say stories instead of doing proper investigation.

The useless people practically rubbished and ridiculed themselves..

Demdem:


get this straight.........personally, am aint defending soldiers because their antecedents is well noted. we have had well documented massacres in this country before like the Odi massacre so we know what OUR soldiers can do to us however it does not change the fact that on this Lekki case we are after nothing but the real truth and not ur truth. During and after the debacle, you guys spread so much lies that burnt down the polity (that surely affected ur case and burnt trust) and we are being careful not to fall for such again. some of you even claimed it was Tinubu that was responsible...........where is that Tinubu angle now? Now seeing an unsigned report out there laced with obvious errors.................and yet u expect us to just sink it in like a dummy and accept what u said?

joyandfaith:


With what I have read so far, report is valid. People are just speculating. People just need to contact the panel for clarification. Media sensation will not change the validity of the report.

Tochj:

Over 1 year, you guys joined Lai to deny that Army shot unarmed youths protesting against police evils
Now the report is out
You are still looking for loopholes
You weren't at tollgate that night
But you are here lying against the dead.

Demdem:
[s][/s]

unfortunately, u chose not to get the gist. so be it. are u the dead? leave the dead, let her defend herself then

Tochj:

Leave the dead?
That why evil persons grow in strength

Tochj:
Enough of this stories
Did soldiers shoot innocent youths at toll gate or not.

joyandfaith:

Who is the second name on the list of those that died.? His brother collected the money on behalf of the dead. Panel wouldn't award death benefit to a living person.

christistruth01:


Nathaniel Solomon the brother who was at the Petition Panel and gave Punch Newspaper an Interview on 11 September 2021 was listed as dead the brother Abouta Solomon was also listed as dead though there is no mention of the Hospital he was taken to ,no medical report either

FreeStuffsNG:

Lagos State Government paid them taxpayers money sir.
The mainstream media is not 'touching ' that report because they don't want the social media to burn their tiny reputation left once again. Imagine if these alleged flaws are not there, by now someone like Sowore who could brazenly lie on Prof Osibanjo about the collapsed Ikoyi property, would have gone for the jugular of the army.
It's in your place to join OP to demand answers. For the Lekki incident they are narrating which formed the basis of our strident call for a special panel be constituted, to my disappointment, only a paltry 6%, 14 petitions out of 234 petitions they recieved came from Lekki whereas I was expecting nothing less than 100 petitions given the rumour that 78 or so people were killed and at least more than 50 families could be affected . Now the lives they wrote and signed as dead are either non existent or have no direct or indirect relationship with Lekki Those 14 petitioners need to be questioned and these facts presented to them since it appears the committee didn't do that basic task.

joyandfaith:


Who collected dead benefits?

luizpippo:



One question, can a petition be submitted to cover 1000 people?

I mean a lawyer or group of lawyers submits a petition (just 1) to cover the massacre of 1,000 people?

christistruth01:



Nathaniel Solomon

FreeStuffsNG:
Is that what happened in this case despite the uproar that resulted into burning down of Lagos? Only 14 petitions while other parts took 94% of the petitions.
Now if you have one petition for 1000 people then you will expect them to even be more meticulous unlike the outright falsehood all over the report.
Is it not a preliminary concern that 94% of the petitions came from other areas of Lagos and those areas of Lagos may perhaps have serious incidents of police brutality? For example, if the committee recieve 100 petitions from Mushin, could it not be that Mushin is even a bigger problem?
Now back to Lekki, why do we have 'ghost' names in the report? Who is the petitioner and what interest motivated the petitioners to lie on oath and the panel not to do its job to verify these falsehoods? For God sake, just a desktop search for those fictitious names the OP raised could have aided the panel members so why didn't they do it? Do they want to foist a falsehood on us for political reasons? Remember the case of Farouk Lawan o

luizpippo:


This long story is unnecessary.

It was a yes or no, question.

I asked if one petition can cover for multiple people, you are talking about Mushin, Ghosts workers and Farouku Lawanu.

I was only interested in correcting the false notion that since only 14 petitions where assumed to have emanated from the Toll plaza, it can't cover more than 14 people.

This is you peddling false assumption to deceive people, something you are accusing the panel of.

How fair does that sound to you.

Author of 101 Fake News on EndSARS Exposes Inconsistencies in Panel Report

The award-winning campus journalist and the author of “101 Fake News on EndSARS,” Dahiru M. Lawal among other Nigerians have exposed what they regard as inconsistencies in a report submitted by Justice Doris Okowubi, Chairperson of Judicial Panel probing allegations of brutality against EndSARS protesters in Lagos.

The document was submitted barely a month after the book on EndSARS was presented in Abuja.

The book “101 Fake News on #EndSARS” identifies major fake news items that contributed to the massive destructions after the peaceful #EndSARS movement turned to violent protests nationwide in 2020.

After receiving the report on Monday night, Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu set up a four-member committee for White Paper, vowing to ensure justice is done to all concerned.

Speaking to PRNigeria, following the controversy, Lawal said he had examined the over 300-page report where he identified a number of claims that raise more questions than answers.

“A large portion of what the panel relied on to pronounce their findings were based on accounts for protesters, the same set of people who paddled the misinformation and fake news that sabotaged the EndSARS movement. So how reliable can these accounts be?

“Also, Justice Okowubi said the Panel considered 186 petitions out of the 252 it received, what happened to the remaining 66 and on what basis were they filtered out and how much can we rely on the procedure that filtered what was considered and what was not?”

Lawal also expressed his shock over some names in the report that were allegedly listed as victims of ‘Lekki Massacre.’

He said “For instance Page 168 and 185 of the report identifies Kolade Salami (Johnson) as a victim of the Lekki Tollgate incident when in fact, media reports in April 2019 identified the same Kolade as a victim killed by men suspected to be from police special anti-cultism unit when he was watching a football match in a neighbourhood viewing centre.

“At the time, Lagos police spokesperson, Bala Elkana, issued a statement at about 6:40 p.m. of the following Monday, announcing the arrest of members of the squad who perpetrated the act.

“Another name, Nathaniel Solomon, who appeared at the resumed hearing of the panel on 30th January 2021 which was also reported, claiming that his brother who died at the Lekki incident had since been buried in Mubi, Adamawa State. The same name Nathaniel Solomon also appeared among the deceased in the report

“Similarly, a certain Folorunsho Olabisi who was mentioned on page 185 as a victim had earlier been denied by St. Nicholas Hospital Lagos.”

However, reactions have continued to trail the report from various quarters with some describing it as riddled with concoctions and fallacies.

Similarly, a social media influencer, Adejare Ibrahim described the report of the EndSARS Panel as Fallacies and Inconsistencies on Lekki,

Posting on Facebook, Ibrahim said the Lagos State Panel of Enquiry on EndSARS, under the chairmanship of Justice Doris Okuwobi, did a great disservice to many Nigerians.

He said: “The report is a pure distortion of glaring facts and cannot, in the face of in-depth probe and sophisticated analysis, stand the test of time.. The report is fraught with discrepancies, irregularities and fallacious stances, which further substantiates the claim of some Nigerians that no one truly died in Lekki Tollgate.

Citing some of the examples of Kolade Johnson, Nathaniel Solomon, Florunso Olabisi among others, he said that “amidst the spread of fake news by EndSARS protagonists and supporters that one Folorunso Olabisi was shot by the Army and his corpse deposited at St. Nicholas Hospital, VI, Lagos. The Management of the Hospital later debunked the malicious claims that they did not receive any corpse in their hospital. Till date, no one has countered the claim of St. Nicholas Hospital. The fact remains that the purported death of Folorunso Olabisi remains a myth. How the name later crept to the Okuwobi Panel Report is surprising.

While mentioning the names of Jide, Tola and Wisdom, Ibrahim simply wrote that “Sincerely, this is hilarious and laughable. I don’t want to believe that a retired Justice of the Lagos High Court approved this below-the-belt report for public consumption. For God’s sake, what is the meaning of this? Who is Jide, Tola, Wisdom without surnames, descriptions, nothing! This is disgraceful!

“Kenechukwu Ugoh: His identity could not be traced on social media. The only person, whose name is close to this, is not active on social. I went through the profiles of some of his family and friends. None of them said anything about him being dead. The Panel should tell us how they came about his name.

“Olalekan Abideen Ashafa: There’s no one bearing this name on social. How he does not have a social media address or anyone declaring him dead is amazing.

“Olamilekan Ajasa: There are some people bearing this name on Facebook. Some of them are active and alive. There is nothing pointing to the fact that they are dead.

“These are the people Justice Okuwobi Panel wants us to believe died in Lekki, whereas there is no iota fact substantiating these claims. The Panel should have understood that that Nigerians are critical thinkers, who will not accept everything thrown at them hook, line and sinker. They will always probe the veracity of anything you tell them. Nigerians are greatly brilliant.

“Till date, none of their family members has shown up. Is the panel telling us they have no family members in Nigeria. After all, the family members of the Ikoyi Collapsed Building victims, within hours, quickly showed up after the sad incident. Why have the family members of the phantom Lekki victims not shown up after a year? Are they still afraid?

“The truth of the matter is that the Nigerian Army, represented by Major General Ibrahim Taiwo, had spoken the pure truth on the day of presentation at the Panel. The presentation was evidence-based and devoid of empty emotions. The Army, as a public institution, deserves some respect from Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu. Their report has brought the truth to bare. Many of us, as well, have presented the truth in its plainest form. Our reports deserve to be looked into, not the report of those who have proven not to be neutral right from the inception of the report.

“In conclusion, I implore Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to think deep and ponder on this report before accepting it as a fact. The report is in no way different from all the junks reported by CNN, some Nigerian newspapers and their social media acolytes. It is full of irregularities, discrepancies and fictions. It will be a great disservice to many Nigerians if the report is in anyway considered.

“The Lagos State Attorney-General and Commissioner of Justice, Mr Moyosore Onigbanjo (SAN), should thoroughly go through the report before raising any White Paper as ordered by the Governor. Those who killed and maimed our security operatives and innocent citizens and destroyed public and private property deserve to be punished, not compensated for their criminal acts,” he concluded.

Justice Doris Okuwobi, who headed the panel, has said that it considered 186 petitions out of the 252 it received in coming up with its report.

Meanwhile, the fact-check specialist, Dahiru M. Lawal is billed to appear on Arise TV today by 9 pm on the latest development.

Your arrogance is taking away your ability to comprehend my points. Pride goeth before a fall .

My point is that if you see numbers that are anomalous like having 6% petition for an incident that led to the burning down of Lagos, if you have the experience in leadership and management, you don't wave it away on the infantile assumption of whataboutism, you find out why it's so. It may be a preliminary clue and that's why I asked you if it is the case in Lekki where a single petitioner (btw, petitions are not exclusive preserve of lawyers, every citizen can write petition), wrote for 1000 people so the 14 petitions for Lekki is for 14×1000? If you don't know, just reply yes or No. This is serious issue let's not mess it up with whataboutism. Governance is serious business and for serious people.

Now if you are all about whataboutism, then there's no point replying you anymore before you derail the thread.

My preliminary assumption is that in the case of Lekki, no petitioner wrote on behalf of 1000 and why a paltry 6% of petition came from Lekki may not be coincidental. Now back to the real issue, how come there are fictitious names in the report? who are those who lied on oath while presenting the fictitious names to the panel? Why did the panel do a shoddy job?

If only 6% of the petitions came from Lekki, I will find out if it's because a petition covered many people or not and in this case, the shoddy outcome further make me sense that the low petition number may still be an indication that Lekki is a phantom exaggeration. OP is doing well.

Lol you picked one and comdemn the whole investigation.
table your own evidence instead of exaggeration of stupidity
