MuttleyLaff:


There is nothing fake about the picture they posted at the time they were reporting that the shooting was on, especially when it is used for one thing and one word: Symbolism

MuttleyLaff:
It is symbolic just a Fela's fist in the air is symbolically used. Just Ernesto "Che" Guevara, the Argentine Marxist revolutionary picture is often printed placards, on worn T-Shirts et cetera and symbolically used during protest marches.

YoungBlackRico:
As at the time it was shared, did their followers know whether it was symbolism or not? You think anyone cared at that moment? And that's even if majority of them knows what the phuck symbolism means. Stop twisting this man, what's wrong is wrong. We are no different from these politicians if we can't even set things straight.

oyatz:
Please sir, stop annoying people with this your logic.

A fake picture was uploaded and circulated by celebrities which causes widespread destruction that shook Lagos to it's foundation and you are calling it symbolism?

Jorgenvava:


The numbers are still under probability, people are still searching and waiting for loved ones to return. The fact you're not hearing about it doesn't mean it is not happening.

CamusMidas:

You love was there three days ago and you had their was a massacre there and you are still waiting for your live one to come back home without raising any alarm?

NGpatriot:
It doesn't matter what I I'm saying, Just show us proof of massacre with 15 dead people and evidence of bloodbath.

MuttleyLaff:




Why not you three musketeers, do yourselves some seriously needed educational favour, go grab the nearest dictionary and look up the meaning of symbolism, better still Google is ever waiting to be your friend to ask, lmso.

Fyi, there are no followers nor leaders in any of the protests, at Lekki Traffic Toll Gate or not at Lekki Traffic Toll Gate grounds, this is the reason that picture was used to be an iconic picture for the protest, just as Fela's, MLK, Thomas Sankara or Ernesto "Che" Guevara are used in protest struggles

Who told you they aren't raising any alarm? Is Nairaland your dwelling place?

YoungBlackRico:
I need help. Not knowing that was not a wrong time to post any 'iconic' or 'symbolic' picture, and so I am an Ode!

Commentor:
I'll give you symbolism.

Jorgenvava:



Nairaland is really your dwelling place, if not, you won't be asking for video evidence.

dadexcel:
You will understand how politics and foolish tribal bigotry has eating deep into the fabrics of our youths when people...I mean intelligent youths keep throwing useless analysis like this over the irresponsible actions of the Nigerian soldiers that led to the deaths and maiming of fellow youths.....

It's in fact disgusting....analysis like this one are simply unnecessary if we have any iota of blood running in our systems.....even if it's only one person that died....we all irrespective of which political affiliation or ethnicity should collectively condemn the actions of these barbarians and insist on their prosecution rather than these empty and vague analysis.

We are really in trouble in this nation ....even with live video evidence yet our completely biased minds still feel it's a conspiracy against your political "gods" ..it's just pathetic

n3xt:


How about the credible evidence from LCC CCTV that’s taking forever to release?

Pls don’t tell me getting access to video footage on the CCTV Cameras at the tollgate isn’t suspicious.

Imagine there was a terrorist attack and we have to wait 120 hours to know what truly happen

Sigh! There was a country.

Commentor:


I'll give you symbolism.

FriendNG:


2 people did not die from the shooting.

2 people died and it's unconfirmed if it's from Lekki or not. Also it's not confirmed if they are part of protestors or not.

Commentor:


Stop deflecting.

It appears you actually want people to have died.

The onus is on those making claims to prove such things happened but many of your likes don't believe in proof of evidence but empty rhetoric.

I cried in the middle of the night on Wednesday when pics of people who died were posted but what I don't understand is how did the army know the families of the 68 deaths within Tuesday and Wednesday to have gone to threaten them.
None of them, even close friends,have come out to say that they are missing.Something is fishy somewhere.

9jatriot:
Very intelligent question. The whole world was stunned that night, tempers flared yet so far no real victims to hold candle light for.
One or two deaths can be hidden but a massacre where there were many onlookers cannot be hidden.

Jorgenvava:

Thank God DJ Switch has finally made a video about what happened that night. For those who didn't watch it, she mentioned two forces; the Nigerian army and the police force. The Nigerian army came first, and when they left, the police force (SARS) continued. Perhaps, reason why there was an increase in the death toll and why the army also denies it.

Now, you may be wondering why DJ Switch and others took the bodies to the soldiers. Let me tell you what happened.

According to Brigadier General Francis Omata, who was alleged as the person who gave his soldiers, the command to kill unarmed protesters at the Lekki Toll Gate, he didn't do it.

Francis said he was not the one who gave the order. It was Lt. Col S.O Bello of the 65 Battalion Bonny Camp.

Why his name is being spread about is because when he heard the plot, he rushed to the scene 39 minutes later to pull back his boys.

He had to announce his name to prevent them from shooting him. This was how people got his name and thought he led them. Here is the link below to read this information:


https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.withinnigeria.com/2020/10/21/brigadier-francis-omata-clears-the-air-on-lekkimassacre-names-officer-who-led-the-operation/amp/

Yes, the Nigerian Army under the command of LT. Col S.O Bello, gave the command to kill unarmed protesters. Who sent Bello?

Now, the reason why DJ Switch trusted the army enough to lay the bodies at their feet was because of Omata. She thought she could trust him, since he came to stop his boys. So for those wondering, I hope you have your answers.

Now, in her statement, she said the SARS police came later. You know they are still disgruntled about their dissolution and took out their anger on the protesters. They've been killing before, it's not a new thing.

The bulk of the killing, the probable 63 dead youths were killed by SARS, the same people this protest is all about.

And...

They are silencing people from speaking the truth.

I found this out when someone made a post of one of the victims and how he was killed. When I got back to check the post, I didn't see it. I asked the lady, she said they told her to take it down.

Who are they?




Now, let's look at a time line of event since the Lekki Massacre:

Sanwo-Olu wrote;

"This is the toughest night of our lives as forces beyond our direct control have moved to make dark notes in our history, but we will face it and come out stronger." This was by 7:43 10/20/20.

Meanwhile the shooting continued until the next morning. Forces beyond our Governors control stopped him from directing the ones under his control to stop the shooting.

We also heard the military was looking for the survivors of the shooting to kill them off.

This was after Sanwo-Olu wrote,

"There are currently 10 patients at the Gen. Hospital, 11 at Reddington, and 4 at Vedic; with mild to moderate levels of injuries while 2 are receiving intensive medical care."

I believe he made this statement as a means of informing the military where the survivors are since making phone calls might leave trails when investigations begin.



Reno Omokri tweeted on 17th,


"I just got privilege information that there is division in the military about how to handle EndSARS protesters, with Burutai pushing for a Shiite scenario, similarly to the Zaria massacre."

This was on 17th October, 2020. The Lekki massacre happened 20th October, 2020 with the military and SARS hiding dead bodies so they can easily twist the story.





Do you know what these guys are doing?

They want to discredit the Lekki story and they are winning!

These people maimed the Nigerian Youths that went out to protest for a better life, they killed them, and threatened their family to keep quiet.

They are monsters!

CamusMidas:

The discussion is going on here, if you can't provide an evidence here then simply let it go.

No one is against you, don't you know there are others thinking on the same lane with me and your evidence would go a long way in shutting our view down thereby enabling us to champion your narrative.

If I tell person wetin you dey talk and he ask me for proof make I tell am sai the video dey everywhere naw, it seems he is not in this earth?

Emotions wins over logic any time any day, when you are willing to discuss this issue critically without seeing me as your enemy then I am here to discuss.

seunmsg:


I want to believe the government will still release footage from the LCC CCTV once investigation is concluded. Btw, is LCC the only building with CCTV covering the area? There are other high rising building with CCTV in that area that could have captured what actually happened that night. Why are they not releasing theirs?

MuttleyLaff:


Why aren't either you or NGpatriot are unable to show where Falz or Yemi Alade typed that the picture they used, serving as a form of symbolism of what happened about the unsung fallen hero(es)/heroine(s) was actually a picture about the protest.

We are talking of the symbolic picture Falz and Yemi Alade used, but you re busy shifting the goal post, going on to talk about mischievous and bad journalism reportage of the protests. The truth and fact of the matter is that defenceless and unarmed protesters were taken pot shots at and gunned down, as if they aren't human beings

barragan:
Then why did they delete it?

miqos02:


The dw report confirmed there was a shooting but was silent on deaths. We really need information on people who died. So many movie scenes were being circulated online as images of dead people and many of them have been denounced by the people involved.

n3xt:


Apologist can go to any stupid length to defend rubbish.

Which other building will see in the dark? LCC owns the toll gate and have over 10 cameras.

Why do we have to wait till the whole country is destroyed before releasing video evidence from the cameras? Something you can do in 30 minutes.

All lives, at the Lekki Traffic Toll Gate protest, matter

Is it now a crime to delete. Next question you'll asking is why are they breathing air
