I'm someone that tries to seek out the facts of any situation rather than rely on hearsay. Let us not because there's a lot of fake news flying now discredit the true ones.

Firstly, you cannot, from the same videos showing the soldiers shooting, see whoever has been hit, simply because it was already dark and a lot of people were running helter skelter.

Secondly, I saw at least three different videos of the shooting, and it was obvious that the soldiers mainly shot upwards in those few minutes. However I know that some bullets may come off laterally in the process of shooting upwards, and several shots were fired by at least three different soldiers for several minutes from the videos I saw. This means there's a greater likelihood of stray bullets or deviations from the directed trajectory of the bullets fired.

Thirdly, there was a video I saw, after the lights came on at the tollgate, where some of the protesters were throwing objects in the direction of the soldiers after the shooting. I saw about two bodies on the floor in that video.

Moreover, it is common sense that shooting continuously so close to such a large gathering of people will definitely result in some people being hit by stray bullets or whatever you call it. Videos of injured victims I saw bore testament to bullet wounds (e.g intestines ripped open)which required them to be taken to the hospital which the Governor himself confirmed. It isn't farfetched that if bullets hit some people, based on the principles of probability, some fatalities were likely.

So definitely, what I have deciphered is that there were some casualties from the lekki shooting, but they were not as much as being initially reported. To say that there were no casualties at all is to be on the same pedestal of those sharing fake news to incite violence against Government. Even if there were only 2 deaths and several injured, it is unacceptable and grossly evil to open fire in the general direction of armless peaceful protesters.

P.S: Note that all the videos I referred to were authentic videos that depicted the visuals and narrations as connecting to the lekkitollgate and the shooting incident.

Good day, My name is Obi-Enadhuze Daniel younger brother of the now deceased Okechukwu Obi-Enadhuze @O_Okee . I, my brother and mother lived at makinde police barracks, mafoluku, Oshodi, Lagos State. Today at about 11 o'clock in the morning...
.

... the police station at makinde was attacked by thugs who wanted to destroy the station, I my mom and brother were holed up in our house, The attack went on for hours before the thugs eventually breached the police and proceeded to set the station on fire, after accomplishing..

...this they set their sights to the barracks and began the assault, they proceeded to destroy every car in the barracks, my mom's 2 cars where destroyed and set on fire and then they infiltrated our house by breaking the door...

... they then proceeded to ransack the house and carted away with everything we own, my brother on trying to get them to take everything but spare us was pushed to my mom's room and stabbed on the neck, the attacker then proceeded to attack me but missed my neck...
.
...but got my chin instead, after this my mom and I carried my brothers body to the entrance of the station soliciting for help from the thugs still ravaging the barracks, we were finally able to put him in a wheelbarrow and took him to a hospital where he was...

... rejected because "he was already dead" unfazed we moved him to another hospital where he met the same treatment this was where he bled his last drops of blood and died, his body has now been moved to a morgue...

...we have lost every single thing we own, as our house was completely ransacked and set on fire the only thing left is my brothers phone and at about 8 o'clock this evening the barracks was still on fire but Okechukwu has paid with the ultimate price...

...I and my mother are homeless with nothing now but we're safe for now, we thank everyone that has been able to reach out to us, and were able to share consoling words with us in these trying times, God bless you...

While we were holed up in the house the three of us said these words together and we say it again " THREE OF US ARE HERE, THREE OF US ARE TOGETHER, THREE OF US ARE SAFE"...

Let it be known that my brother @O_Okee was NOT killed by a police bullet but died a hero protecting my mother and I.

If you see this please retweet, let the world know how Okechukwu died. He was NOT killed by a police bullet but thugs in his home!

My theory is that someone fabricated this as some sort of cover-up.

We need Anti-Fake News Monitoring Squad... Even NL mods don't do their homework well tbh.

Bashirjaja01:
Did Buhari send them to kill innocent people and destroy/stealing their properties? In days coming you guys will have your senses back and regret your actions.

StagethemTVee:
God bless you brother

madridguy:
R.I.P Mr Oke.

I pray fake news will not set our country apart.

Plead:
So, basically he was killed by the protesters cum thugs and hoodlums. This is getting worrisome, angry protesters are going overboard and nobody is complaining but when the military retaliates to tame them now people will start wailing on social media.

You claim to be fighting because SARS has been infringing on your rights yet you're also looting stuffs that don't belong to the government or its officials and killing innocent citizens while also blocking roads thereby infringing on their rights to free movement. What exactly is the difference between you and the SARS guys?

Most people are biased about this whole shii and will still reply me with an emotional undertone. Smh

AlieninPH:
Ginalex is more than senseless. The moderators need to ban her and her fake news.
She is giving Nairaland a bad name on the social media.

SoBright101:
Beware southerners. This is the time to know and understand the true identity of those who cause tribalism on here, they are paid agents, they are neither from east or west. They have more than twenty accounts, they would create tribal topics and make tribal comments with another accounts to cause chaos between southerners. Though, they have no conscience but you can try to educate them or better ignore them. They are easy to identify, use your head brothers.

Also Be aware that tactics and plans has been deployed to cover up the massacre since all their efforts to break southern unity were not fruitful. They have created a lot of Facebook and Twitter accounts with Yoruba or Igbo names for this purpose, one of them is to post pictures or video of people who debunked being killed, those pictures were scripted and earlier been circulated for this purpose. They would discredit real occurrence and give it another title. Beware of the propaganda

Ginalex:
cursed human #tueh

Diariess:
Cursed bastard from the pit of darkness. You shall die a gruesome death. Even Satan shall mourn you.

Ginalex:
i laugh you. You know why? Because you are lying against the dead... You don't know what you have gotten yourself into. Just wait... It won't be long before things start falling apart for you... That's if they haven't started already... Watch and see.

tutudesz:
So his family were paid too

Ever8090:
I beg, who know any shortcut from Nigeria to Cameron?..

Diariess:
Which lie? Are you mad? Do I look like one of those you've been arguing with and cursing on this thread. I dropped my opinion and then said "the joke is on you". You responded "cursed human being". Wahali may you, down to your 15th generation be cursed. Your death shall be more fatal than your mother's own. Nobody will mourn you. Gerrout of here mehn.

Ginalex:
all of this and more is what you'll suffer... Mark my words. God has satisfied me and my family with long life and peace. So I'll definitely be alive to see all this happen. Cursed nonentity.

You and the evil leaders of this great country can never escape the wrath of God Almighty.

Diariess:
No need to talk much jareh. You just need to be singled out outside this forum. I'll pay thugs to do to you what they do to cultists. The way they would machete your body ehn, infact mortuary attendants will reject you. This your underdeveloped brain needs to be chopped in tiny pieces with a blunt cutlass so that as you're screaming from the pain, Satan will hear you and quickly receive you to die. Bastard child.

Ginalex:
I dare you to try it and see... Devil... Joy and peace have eluded you already. You are just waiting for your end which would be a very shameful one

Diariess:
No need to dare me. Just drop your details if you won't be found and hacked to death in 24hours. Foolish child of the devil

Beetobee:
If the protest had been suspended when the five demands were met, it wouldn't have been this bad.
