A member of the Lagos State Judicial Panel of Inquiry has shed light on why there are errors in the leaked #EndSARS report.

Temitope Majekodunmi, a youth representative on the panel, said the report in circulation had typographical errors but they were corrected before it was approved and submitted to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

Hours after the panel presented its reports on the Lekki shooting incident and police brutality cases to Mr Sanwo-Olu, a copy of the document was leaked and it went viral on social media.

Upon receiving the report, Mr Sanwo-Olu set up a four-man committee to look into the report within two weeks and “bring forward the white paper that would be considered at the Lagos State executive council and presented as the white paper coming from the panel of inquiry.”

Errors
The final report by the panel established that, at least, 46 people were shot dead, injured with bullets, or assaulted by security forces on the night of October 20, 2020, at the Lekki toll gate in Lagos.

Pro-government supporters have, however, attempted to discredit the report, saying it was riddled with errors and is a testament to the shoddy job done by the panel.

But Mr Majekodunmi said the report in circulation had typographical errors but was approved as the final copy after the errors were corrected.

He said that the leaked report is “not far from the original but I can confirm that the original is without all the identified errors.”

He said the final copy, which was submitted to the governor, was devoid of those identified errors.

“Furthermore, we did approve the report for print after several reviews of typographical errors, omission of some documents but duplicated as final edit; final, final edits and final of the finals of edit,” Mr Majekodunmi.

“Regardless of errors identified, it is important that we stick to the facts of the findings and its recommendations contained therein and also interpret appropriately. This report is all-encompassing for the reasoning of peace and justice. I am sure every one of you must have gone through the details.

He said that the summary of the report can be found on “pages 11-15, Background on page 16; General proceedings on pages 17-280, Panel findings on Pages 281 304, a compendium of recommendations on pages 305-308 and the conclusion to page 309.”

“The report of the panel further validates our position that peaceful protesters were injured and/or killed by security operatives, who were meant to protect us. The findings of the panel and most importantly, the recommendations, are now in the public domain.”

Mr Majekodunmi commended the survivors and advocates “who braved the lengthy Judicial Panel hearings to arrive at what we considered “Appropriate Justice” for all that may have been wronged or aggrieved. Also, I would not fail to mention the sincerity of the State Government throughout the execution of the inquiry.”

It's time for election they've remembered the people

APC governors only remember the people when it's time for election

I have seen it. They made a joke of themselves. I knew something was off when Ebun started threatening the Lagos state govt that the sham document should not be reviewed. They knew they did a bad job but was hoping they could blackmail the state into submission.

The white paper will be out after the next 2 weeks, efcc should get involved in this case. How managed those fake deaths received compensation? Where is the money going to?

bobowaja:
PDP playing with endsars hoping to get a comeback with it. Dead on arrival. It didn't work in the Lagos east senatorial election and it won't work in 2023.

bobowaja:

Timi is just an attention seeker who knows how to get dem from the other side to follow his lead.

Sanwo a gentleman has allowed an animal like Buhari destroy his lineage forever .His kids have to change their surnames at this rate

So nobody died. No killing. No massacre. No cover up?
Humanity first before any affiliation.

joyandfaith:


The whole report shouid be discarded because you think there are some errors?
Do you have details of how Panel arrived at their conclusion?
Have you read about 50% of that report?

E choke u....
No worry u go choke till u choke and choke again

tollyboy5:

Lol you picked one and comdemn the whole investigation.
table your own evidence instead of exaggeration of stupidity

vedaxcool:


I hope to see the Lagos state Government do that.

Rexwalters1:
14 dead was not enough for you, Maybe you need like 114 instead?

vedaxcool:


It is trash designed to please PDP swines and ipob terrorists. Sowolu is too gentle to govern Lagos. He gave a well know PDP agent position in a panel to investigate the violence orchestrated by PDP urchins. Imagine in an investigative panel putting up names that have no surname.

They were paid very well and still came up with garbage report.

So you guys isn't giving up on your propaganda? May what happens in lekki toll on 20 October 2021 happens to those doubting

ohk sir but I’m telling you base on the fact that I’m a insider in SS politics,why didn’t the people protest like the way the people in imo state are protesting against the Supreme Court governor

People in SS region don’t give a hoot about Apc, the only tribe in delta that likes apc small is urohobo people,buhari won in delta central they love apc,that’s where the deputy senate president is from his people voted apc in all the general elections in 2019 governorship oh presidency oh and even house of reps, the vote wasn’t rigged but the rest SS tribe they detest apc

Tingotoe:
If he eventually cliches the APC ticket who is he going to pick from the north to balance the ticket? He can't pick another Muslim and the core north will not accept a Christian northerner to represent their interests. That's the reason why I don't like the idea of his candidacy. That and besides the fact that he's old and sickly. The best thing for him to do at this point is to throw his support behind Prof Osibanjo who will now team up with a Muslim from the core north and the election will be a walkover for the APC

Darkcloud11:
Abeg tinubu should campaign pleaseee ; I keep saying it here the reason pastor ize iyamu lost was jagaban appearance in Benin the guy spoil plans anything tinubu in SS is a bad market I don’t know about SE oh but the SS urchins will rather vote yahaya bello,tinubu is known as a thief and a man who wants to turn Nigeria to Lagos that’s the narrative that follows him,if I were tinubu I will be spending time appeasing the SS region just visit get small leg there instead ehn he will fail woefully in SS and SE

I expect this post to hit front page with the speed of light.

But there was a People’s Gazette article yesterday of how Osinbajo is shutting up every voice of opposition with litigation.

Like the article rightly put it, Osinbajo is a Legal terrorist.

I don’t want any idiot coming here to compare Osinbajo with Peter Obi ever again.

We have leaders too. We don't support elders who will interfere with the smooth running of our government. There's a difference between leaders and godfathers

vanbonattel:


Remove the FG oil money invested in Lagos since the days it was capital of Nigeria and Lagos descends to Abeokuta levels.

vanbonattel:


And that's also why we have nobody loading 2 bullion vans with raw cash

As long as we have no godfathers, we're good.
