1. Why was there no single drop of blood at Lekki toll gate the next morning after the shooting and the road is tarred of which you can see everything on the ground.
..
to the idiots peddling this especially, send a video of yourself at the toll gate the morning of the 21st of Oct walking the entire perimeter of the toll gate and showing that indeed there was no drop of blood. At least there is evidence of shooting and evidence of 2 fatalities, bring your own evidence of the absence of blood stains on the road the next day. We await your videos. Unrepentant and sociopathic fools!

I comend your sincere analysis. I guess you were handsomely paid to do this. Just keep the good work going. We'll all be served round

Pls, just answer these questions
1)Why was that light( both the bill board and the other sources of light) switched off at lekki toll gate.
2) why was the cctv removed.
2)That bolded part, you also can testify that soldier came to a peaceful protest ground to disperse protesters with live ammunition. What went wrong with using rubber bullets, Canons, teargas. You are aware of what stray bullets can cause in such a very large crowd but they still went ahead to fire live rounds. Can you give a very good reason why they resorted to using that method.
Don't mind the guy that is trying to be clever by half.

Is that why the CCTV video is taking days to release?

Up till now, DJ Switch has been unable to show us her blood-stained attire from the said night. After all, she said she helped lift some of the dead/wounded.

On her Instagram page, she preferred to be promoting some Jalabia she was gifted than presenting her blood-stained clothes.
Why did they go there to fire live rounds in the first place? What was there intention? Why were the lights off? I can't stop imagine the evil those guys perpetrated on that dark and bloody Tuesday.

DJ Switch MUST TELL US WHO DIRECTED THE INSTAGRAM LIVE VIDEO_ by Pigo Hedliger.

However Nigerians present this Lekki regrettable and ugly incident , emotions will never take the place of logic. Yes lives have been lost in this protest all over Nigeria & yes there were shootings at Lekki Toll but never a massacre .

However, there have been too many lies about the number of people, & I find this disheartening because even one life lost is bad enough.

No matter how you hate me, curse or call names, it doesn’t change the truth from remaining the truth. Soldiers came to Lekki toll gate and fired bullets in the air for 30minutes, people scampered for safety and there was first degree stampede that night. Over 100 people got injured, stray bullet hit 3 and all of them are still in the hospital while one of them died the next day.

If you can pause and think, the first thing you will ask yourself is. Since they call this a massacre

1. Why was there no single drop of blood at Lekki toll gate the next morning after the shooting and the road is tarred of which you can see everything on the ground.

2. With the bullets we saw on the ground in the morning after the shooting, if soldiers actually fired straight bullets at protesters, don’t you think it’s trailer that will be used to pack dead bodies the next day

3. Let us agree soldiers killed 100people and moved them away. Now ask yourselves, did they come back with water, hypo and buckets to wash the whole of Lekki toll gate? To the extent we didn’t see a drop of blood from what Nigerians termed massacre

4. Let us agree that soldiers killed 100people, moved their bodies away, came back and washed the whole ground with hypo, let’s ask ourselves, what are their names, who are their parents and friends, why haven’t any family in Lagos come out since then to say my children are not yet back from Lekki protest?

If Nigeria does not kill fake news, fake news will kill Nigeria.

Over 20people Nigerians posted their pics and videos claiming they died during the so called massacre have come out to deny and say they are all alive.

99% of pics and videos flying around social media turned out to be fake.

CNN and BBC finally found out most of the news is fake and have retracted most of the pics they displayed initially.

What everyone is now asking is that. Why should soldiers come and fire bullets in the first place, nobody is calling it massacre anymore.

All the noise ended up as lies and hoax. Even the CCTV camera they raised alarm that was removed at the toll gate turned out to be lies.

Those doing the lying are actually doing more disservice to the movement because it casts all else in doubt.

I maintain; you can condemn both the shooting & the lies.

Buhari is not the owner of Nigeria. Do not burn down this country with lies. If we burn down this country, Buhari will retire 2023 and the damages we caused , all of us will still suffer it forever.

To those of you saying soldiers shot into the air and there were stampede etc what about the videos were DJ switch and others were using nail cutter to remove bullet from the lap of someone, what about those they carried to the hospitals with shot. Rather than condemned the government actions some people are saying they are Photoshop. Himmm God will help us as a country

Re: Lekki Shootings: We Hid Behind Barricades To Escape, Say Eyewitnesses by Janajack: 4:50pm On Oct 24, 2020
Muslims must surely pay for their atrocities in this country;

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.

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!
