God how did I find myself in Nigeria.... this people really think we are fools, u told us one tin last week that the army wasn't even there, later tell us that the whole tin was photo shopped, now they have admitted of being because they can't deny that fact, now they re telling us that the shoot at the protesters but wit blank ammo that doesn't kill, yet sanwolu confirmed that just 2 bodies was found dead.... God pls don't let this monsters go unpunished, even when they feel they have deceived us.... let this kinda act befall them or there family members.. so that they will feel the pain and agony the families of these innocent people

It is obvious to even the reasonable blind that no live ammunitions were fired into the crowd. If that happened, we would see the results. The fake "massacre" was a political con job by extremist but myopic propagandists.
Was a political. Hahaha

First, they said - WE WERE NOT THERE.
Then, later, they said - WE WERE THERE, BUT WE DIDN'T SHOOT.
Now, it's - WE SHOT, BUT WE ONLY SHOT BLANK AMMOS
---
Next, we'll hear - WE SHOT LIVE AMMOS, BUT WE ONLY SHOT THEM IN THE AIR.
next would be - WE ONLY SHOT THE PEOPLE BUT DID NOT KILL THEM(They died as a result of their carelessness).

This is to tell you how useless our leaders are. They speak from both sides of their mouth. This present government is the worst EVER Nigeria has had, right from independence.

BREAKING: Army denies shooting #EndSARS protesters

The 81 Division of the Nigerian Army (NA) has denied allegation soldiers opened fire on #ENDSARS protesters at the Lekki Toll Plaza last Tuesday.

In a statement by the Acting Director Army Public Relations (ADPR), Major Osoba Olaniyi, the Division however confirmed the involvement of soldiers in restoring order in Lagos following the declaration of curfew by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

The Nation reports this is the first time the division is speaking about the incident that occurred last week.

It said: “The attention of Headquarters 81 Division Nigerian Army has been drawn to a viral video on social media in which it was alleged that civilian protesters were massacred by soldiers at Lekki Toll Plaza. This allegation is untrue, unfounded and aimed at causing anarchy in the country.

“At no time did soldiers of the Nigerian Army open fire on any civilian. From the onset of the ENDSARS protest, there was no time personnel of 81 Division Nigerian Army Lagos were involved.

Why does the NA insisting on burying a matter of gross misconduct..why don't they provide the name of the person that ordered the shootings and stop all these cover up stories

Names do not help. Who ever gave the order did it on behalf of the Nigerian Army and Government.
Who ever gave the order did it within his statutory responsibility within the military hierarchy. So why insist on who gave the order as an individual?

Mr. educated dunce... you're eager to partake of the sin of those murderous devils because of selfish interests. Go ahead
Just leave these over educated illiterates..
Since the beginning of these whole story, there has been these sets of people who i don't know for some reasons best known to them always feels like those of us talking about lekki massacre are been run over by emotions. They are having this over bloated ego that they are seeing things which we are not seeing, making them say thrash. Example is that guy.
Always making it look like we are been run by emotions and not looking at the whole events critically. But you ask them simple questions, they will not reply.
Firstly, why was the light off that day, it has never happened, light at lekki toll gate doesn't go off.
Secondly, why was the camera removed ,a deliberate attempt to cover their crimes.
But some low budget Sherlock Holmes will come here and start spewing thrash.

Think about it. If it was live ammunition fired into the crowd, it won't have been able to hide. The fatality would be more than 100.

So you don't think there is a big difference between saying we did not shoot at anyone and saying we did not shoot?

Don't you think that we did not shoot at anyone and saying we fired blanks is saying the same thing since you cannot shoot a blank at anyone?

Unlike the narrative you trying to promote?
