Meanwhile, earlier today, The Nigerian Army described as ‘photoshopped’ videos of military men shooting Nigerian youths who were protesting against the extrajudicial activities of the now-defunct Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) at Lekki Toll Gate, Lagos State.
Governor of Lagos State Sanwo-Olu said no fatality was recorded in the Lekki toll gate shooting.
For lying against the Nigerian youths, angry Lagosians stormed Sanwo-Olu’s family house in Lagos Island and burnt down the building. They also set his mothers building in Akerele Surulere on fire.
