#EndSARS: We’re Unhappy Sanwo-olu Denied Inviting Army, General Tells Panel by Ababbio: 4:09pm On Nov 14, 2020
The Nigerian Army has said they are unhappy that, Governor Sanwo-Olu denied inviting them to Lekki tollgate on October 20, where soldiers shot at #EndSARS protesters.

Speaking before the State Judicial Panel of Inquiry probing the Lekki incident, on Saturday, the Commander of 81 Military Intelligence Brigade, Victoria Island, Lagos, Brig. Gen. Ahmed Taiwo said the army is not happy about the development.

However, General Taiwo noted that inviting the Army was the best decision the Lagos governor could have taken as the #EndSARS protest plunged the state into anarchy but added that the Army was also unhappy that Sanwo-Olu said two persons died from the military engagement at the Lekki tollgate.

“I spoke with the governor and said the Army was unhappy that he said he did not ask for Army’s intervention but I am sure that after you watched everything (video footages), you saw he had more than enough grounds to ask for Army’s intervention; perhaps it was the way everything went,” he said.

Recall that, Governor Sanwo-Olu in his live broadcast after #Lekki shooting denied inviting the military to disperse protesters at the Lekki tollgate on October 20, blaming the attack on force beyond his control.

But the Army Headquarters subsequently said in a statement that the Lagos State government invited the soldiers to the protest ground and that the soldiers acted within the rules of engagement.

The Lagos governor has been under fire since the incident at the Lekki tollbjsgate which has been condemned by local and international civil rights organisations.

[/s]The soldiers acted within the rules of engagement by killing youths holding national flag and singing national anthem. Lekki is the most peaceful in Nigeria but Zoogeria military and Polithiefcians always reason upside down. It's seems their brain is designed exactly opposite to that of a normal human.

They can't feel disgraced because they are shameless. They are less human or something is definitely wrong with them. APC zombies. What lies do you have to say?

So the army was truly there unlike Malami wanted us to believe that some people in army uniform might have shot at the protesters.

Now we know who invited them. Was there shootings of the unarmed protesters or not?

You all can't hide under one finger. The whole world is watching.

After all the nauseating lies that they were not @ the tollplaza? Sanwo-Olu, Nigerian army and the government all played dastard roles in the tragic Lekki tollplaza incident.Karma will pay them back.

The real problem is that the Nigerian army is an unorganized organisation where anything goes.

Let this same soldiers talking about rules of engagement see ISWAP and you will see them taking to their heels.

Sanwo went on CNN and a few other networks to lie repeatedly.

The Nigerian Army was lying and continues to . . .

Where is Malami?

The only part that "offs" me is those miscreants/paid agents playing "devil's advocates" for these 2-cent-whoring-liars.

Whenever there is a curfew, army is invited to maintain law and order.

The question is, did governor ask you to shoot ? No, governor do not tell army how to carry out their job. That is job if army commander

I don't understand you people.

There's a clip where Sanwolu and British High commissioner spoke, he made mention of inviting Army TO BE AT THE VENUE AROUND 9PM TO MAINTAIN THE CURFEW DECLARED BY LGSG.

Army came before the time, MEANWHILE NO MASSACRE OCCURRED, WE ALL SEE THE VIDEOS.
