Lagos EndSARS report, an intimidation of majority by minority — Lai Mohammed
The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohamed, has described the EndSARS report submitted by the Lagos judicial panel of inquiry on restitution for victims of SARS related abuses and other matters as an “intimidation of the majority by a minority”.
Lai Mohammed at a press conference on Tuesday in Abuja claimed the report did not follow the evidence at hand.
According to him, the panel shockingly compiled and submitted allegations made by Nigerians.
NewWireNGR recalled the Lagos judicial panel of inquiry report titled: ‘LAGOS STATE JUDICIAL PANEL OF INQUIRY ON RESTITUTION FOR VICTIMS OF SARS RELATED ABUSES AND OTHER MATTERS’ noted: “The Nigerian Army left, the Nigeria Police Force, followed up with the killing of the protesters, shooting directly at fleeing protesters into the shanties and the Lagoon at the Lekki Phase 1 Foreshore, close to the Lekki Toll Gate, floating corpse”.
The report also said; “The atrocious maiming and killing of unarmed, helpless and unresisting protesters, while sitting on the floor and waving their Nigerian flags, while singing the National Anthem can be equated to a ‘massacre’ in context”.
