Lives Lost During #EndSARS, But None at Lekki Toll Gate — Lai Mohammed
The Lekki Toll Gate incident remains one of the most disputed episodes of the October 2020 #EndSARS protests against police brutality, with sharply differing accounts from protesters, civil society groups, and the Federal Government.
Former Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, has again maintained his position that although lives were lost during the nationwide #EndSARS protests, no deaths occurred at the Lekki Toll Gate on October 20, 2020.
Speaking on Tuesday as a guest on Politics Today, a current affairs programme on Channels Television, Mohammed said his stance has remained unchanged since the protests. He stressed that the Federal Government never denied that lives were lost during the unrest.
“Five years later, my position has not changed. At no point did the government ever say that lives were not lost during #EndSARS. We lost several lives, including soldiers and policemen, but nobody was killed at the toll gate,” he stated.
