These are the video report of both reputable international TV stations on the lekki shooting incident. The incident has generated quite a lot of controversies around the world. While the Nigerian Government has vehemently denied shooting at the lekki protesters. The Army on the other hand earlier denied going to lekki to shoot, but later admitted that it was at the lekki tool gate but didn't shoot live bullet. They also claimed they shot at the air not at protesters.
But the protesters are insisting that they were shot at and many were killed. The major protester at the ground DJ switch told CNN that the soldiers shot at them and killed lots of people.

Both CNN and BBC have given their own report on what happened at the lekki toll gate. While BBC reporter Damilola Banjo who was at the protest ground reported that the Army was shooting on air, but only saw one man grasping for air which she was not because of gun bullet, the CNN video said the Army actually shot at the protesters with live bullet. Though the CNN was not present at the protest ground.

So Nairalanders, watch the video report from both CNN and BBC. who is actually giving the real account of what happened at Lekki toll gate on the 20 of October 2020

Well, after both videos, I feel both have their report based on the availability of evidence present. That the BBC reporter said no one died at the lekki toll gate contradicts CNN report. But remember the BBC reporter said she was there for a little above 20mins. While CNN report said the Army shot for hours.

BBC were present at the venue and gave their report but anyone who watch the CNN report and still say there is no massacre at the lekki toll gate on that day is heartless.

It is a shame that we even have to rely on foreign journalists and TV stations to get a clearer view of what happened at the lekki toll gate.
Shame on Our journalists

BBC reporter said shots were fired into the air while they were there. When they left it doesn't mean the military didn't shoot into the crowd as shots fired into the air didn't deter the protesters. She gave a picture of what she witnessed only.

Our national journalist are all lazy. Very few of them has that ability to do the right thing and carry out investigational journalism. All are brown envelope journalists

Easy brother. Weather you have different view from me or anyone, i believe we are all fighting for a better country through different opinions. For the record, I don't yet have a clear picture of what transpired at the lekki toll gate until the investigations are complete.
Apology if tagging you irritated you.

Una no de tire? The army said they were there but fired into the air to scare away the protesters. Besides how come up till now we don't have the any known person that was killed there?

I don't trust these western MSM but this supporter of APC government needs to be sanctioned!!

The authorities initially denied army presence at lekki toll gate

Yea that was a very extensive investigation but we shouldn't rule out the BBC own report where it's journalist was present at the protest ground

OK
That one dey

A people that disobey law and order should not cry in a lawless situation, the Governor of Lagos state declare a curfew but some certain individual said no to the directive, in all every one of them both the government, army and the people that disobey govt order have cause us all this unnecessary report by BBC and CNN

The BBC report does not contradict anything. She described how she left the toll gate and what she saw. She couldn't possibly see everything that happened that night, that is why the report of other eyewitnesses are important.
One thing is certain though, the army was there shooting at protesters and this is the main problem.

Killing people is the punishment for disobeying a curfew?

BBC OR THE BRITISH HAS ALWAYS SUPPORTED EVIL IN NIGERIA

IT WAS BARELY 24 HRS THAT THE BRITISH MET TINUBU AT HIS RESIDENCE THAT THE ARMY CAME AND STARTED SHOOTING AT THE PROTESTERS!

@OP PLEASE GET YOUR FACT RIGHT

It not stuff we should be debating about pls, those govt officials involved should get ready for long thing, that night is too bloody for all this propaganda cover up. They should be ashamed of themselves!
