Take your apology to yourself.

1. If there is protest for 12days and you didnt remove your cameras to avoids damage why do you remove when the government gave 24hours curfew? Curfew didn't affect the security personal at your facility since essential services is needed.

2. How can life ammunition be open on group of people(protesters) with about 18 people sustaining injuries without recording even 1 case of death.?

3. Everyone know Lagos is home of traffic, giving curfew order at 12pm for the law to take effect at 4pm is impossible for all protesters to go home. They decided to sleep over since its 24hours, why are you so concern about them leaving by force since they are not constituting arms to the public?

There Is no debate here because we can't hide forever. If they think we are dullard we are not. I know there will be a lot of ways to cover up the damages but truely there was casualties.

Why there was power reinstallation after this devilish act? The Generator should have been down for the whole night since there is curfew.

Regardless of if there Is death or injuries. Who order shooting at armless protesters?

READ THIS AND YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHEN WE TALK ABOUT CONSPIRACY. CONSPIRACY TO TAKE OVER LAGOS.

The attack on Tinubus properties in Lagos has divided the struggle and has given it to another arms of the enemy which is the PDP opportunist. It is a valid claim that the attack has taken an ethnic dimension culminating from the long standing sentiment fueled by Igbo tribal rhetoric on Yoruba.
If the uneducated aren't aware of this, at least the educated see on line everyday, on twitters, on Nairaland and comment sections of Facebook news.

While the protest was initially focused on creating a lasting change in our system, it is also expedient that we are not ignorant of the prevailing moods and how it developed.

I have my proof. For the past years, I have had my ear to the ground by following, reading and interpreting comment and feedback on social media especially Twitter.
We must realize that Twitter was, at first, the mobilizing front for the protest. It still remain the most influential site in advancing the course of the struggle. The #endsars is a Twitter trend and the mobilizing celebrities take their base from the app. So when I see developing stories and the accompanying opinion, how it easily metamorphosed into the intended sentiment of some people in contradiction of the objective realities, I realize the power wielded by ethnically conscious people in exploiting social media for their own agenda.

There has been weeks and months of culmination of ulterior motives. Anyone who observe and follow events will see a consistent pattern. Almost everyday, Yoruba, Igbo or Tinubu trends on Twitter and once I see that, I need not struggle to comprehend the orientation of the opinion. Whenever Igbo is trending, the prevailing opinions are always the rhetorics that Igbos are hardworking, Igbos are the most marginalized, Igbo holds their head despite attempt to suppress them: Igbo are the most successful ethnic group in Nigeria and Igbo are the most intelligent. Once Yoruba trend, opinion varies but there are also the insult on Yoruba that they arr slave to northern Fulani. Nairaland is where this opinion thrive the most and most of you know..
And Whenever Tinubu trend, it is about his dynasty, the bullion van, his role in enthroning Fulani man, sometimes, comparison with Awolowo. I also see this as an attempt to denigrate the Awolowo.. Even some few months ago, Awolowo trended on twitter and once I saw it, I quickly pounce on it knowing a tribal war was already raging. My intuition didn't disappoint me as some were already mobilizing opinion calling Awolowo a perpetrator of genocide. He was accused of masterminding all the ill treatment metted on Igbo during the civil war. This led to heated debate and name calling between Igbo and Yoruba. History were dug up to correct the false claim and lies foisted on the sage. It even took the verified account of some prominent Yoruba name to give the founding father a bit of soft landing. I guess the Igbo on twitter left on that day to fight another time.

Before Lekki killing two days ago, my intuition already told me an anti Tinubu protest was in the offing. It was a ticking time bomb waiting to explode. For days, I have seen tweets accusing Tinubu of being the sole source Nigerian problem. He was accused of being responsible for the enthronement of Fulani man in Buhari. Most of this post tried to absolve Jonathan. The hasty comparison of Buhari administration to justify the later is a common rhetorics amidst south Easterners while the Yoruba mostly maintain a liberal posture that both men are part of the age-long succession of bad Nigerian leaders. But in recent days the tactics of glorifying GEJ as a way of condemning Buhari had held sway unchallenged by Yoruba because of the current mood against bad governance. Tinubu wasn't spared the attack too. Not that I absolve Tinubu, and I never defend him but seeing the desperation to nail him alone when the demanding was to effect systemic change made me sceptical of some people genuine intention.

Three days ago, the news of a former TVC employer, who was sacked at the behest of Bourdillon after walking away from a live show made the headline. The South easterner lady who is now an actress stormed the Instagram to claim she was sacked from TVC by order from Bourdillon after walking out of a live show in response to the Oba of Lagos declaration in 2015 that Igbo will be drawn in Lagoon. The allegations later drew the response of her fellow show anchor Morayo Afolabi Brown who claimed the order didn't come from Bourdillon.

The narrowing down of this to anti-Tinubu is a deviation fueled by brewing ethnic sentiment and it is aimed at serving the Igbo people age-long interest of ending the reign of APC government in Lagos ans replacing it with a PDP. Isn't it surprising that the Lekki massacre could not put the demand for Buhari resignation on front burner? I checked Twitter trend yesterday and #BuhariMustResign died down completely while #TinubuIsAKiller maintained the top spot. I care less about Tinubu but I doubt the readiness to push for Buhari resignation. There is also the tribal view the removing Buhari will aid Osinbajo to power.

Idiotic thinking. Why did he run away if his conscience his clear?

Secondly, do you know how many posts that were posted on this same NL to spite the Ibos? The months of July to September were particularly too bad for them, especially Anambra.

NL kept searching for the worst of the worst of the worst to spite them. Today, its Anambra men resist brideprice law reform; tomorrow it'l be Anambra woman bathes in-law with hot water. It got to a point everyone was saying Anambra had overtaken Ogun in bad news on NL.

You think everyone is stupid shey? And make no mistake, Im Yoruba o. Complete Yoruba, both parents but you people's propaganda, I will whitewash it for you 100%. angry

Op, your title is misleading, seems you are one of the paid agents of Buhari media crew who are bent on erasing their worst mistake of murdering peaceful protesters in cold blood


EiE didn't deny that the massacre didn't happen, what they are apologizing for is their publication accusing Sanwo-Olu of ordering the removal of the CCTV Cameras to cover up the Nigerian Army massacre of 20th October, 2020 at Lekki toll plaza!



Please let people be informed, it will be unjust to those that died in that unfortunate massacre for everybody to deny that innocent, unarmed Nigerians were murdered in cold blood by gun-wielding Nigerian army ordered from probably Abuja as a way to scare away other #ENDSARS protesters which backfired and now everybody is scared of being arrested by the ICC and spending their remaining days at ICC Prison in Hague.



Buhari, Buratai, etc should not be scared about ICC Prison, it is not like Kirikiri prison, it is well equipped with all those modern amenities they steal Nigeria's money to put in their luxury homes, so its going to be another home away from home for them at ICC Prison in Hague cool

Brilliant analysis. Kudos to you. It’s clear that ethnic orientation kills the game.
That audio from Kanu even nailed the struggles. The only thing that can be said to be positive from the fact that the police will definitely be reformed. As for Tinubu matter the man is now more posed to become the President more than ever before. I think his enemies overdo things and I see it favoring his eventual emergence as a more stronger political force!

Why not display their details?


Liars incorporated.

Almost 3 days and no one has opened a thread to say this is my brother or sister I lost.

God would punish all of you.

Very irresponsible and unguarded comment.
Why have you chosen the Igbos for your nonsense remark? Are we talking about just one section of the nation losing their people or the entire nation lamenting losses well orchestrated by your brother Yoruba man, Yemi Adamolekun?

How many Yorubas own electronics shops in Lagos? If not for your myopia you'll find that those who have suffered the greatest economic loss are the Igbos. Maybe you did not see the thugs carting away fridges, a/cs, standing gas cookers, laptops, etc from shops across Lagos. Maybe you do not know that a lot of these business people took out loans to stock their shops. For those who do not hold insurance, will you get out finances to them?

While you are waiting there in your room for people to open threads, why not get enough airtime to make calls and find out what's going on? You cannot hear of the uncountable people who have lost their lives because of your shortsightedness and inability to ask questions.

Yemi Adamolekun is an Igbo name...right? Maybe you did not read how he apologized for sending the wrong information that led to the destruction.

To slap you dey hungry me. Your head like walnut.

Sanwo-olu may not be perfect but I'm not blaming him for the shooting at Lekki. He may not be in the know about that shooting. The only challenge he has is been seen as Tinubu stooge. I hope to see him as his own man.

Isn't Sanwo Olu Tinubus stooges. You are employing another style to sustain your anti-Tinubu campaign. The Mastermind of Lekki toll gate shooting is yet to be unravelled but anger has been vented on Tinubu after several unfounded claim

you see the game plan now displaying everywhere. Nigeria isn't worth dying for.

May all who are behind the massacre have no peace and their kids, even yet unborn partake in their suffering.
Give us the names of people killed. There was never a massacre any where in Lekki
