Soldiers fire gunshots to disperse #EndSARS protesters

Soldiers fire gunshots to disperse #EndSARS protesters
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Linkedin

Several social media accounts reveal peaceful protesters are being shot at by the military at the Lekki toll gate holdout for the #EndSars protest.

Reports seen online indicate several protesters shot were been treated on the roadside by fellow protesters. Nairametrics cannot verify the authenticity of the videos.

However, in one video seen, a protester who was reportedly shot in the leg was being treated by protesters after bullets were removed.

In another gripping image that has perhaps captured the image of these protests, one of the protesters was seen covered in blood while the flag was used to reduce the bleeding apparently from an injury.

A curfew was imposed by the Lagos State Government earlier in the day starting from 4pm but was later moved to 9pm today. However, the protesters were defiant choosing to continue the protest until their demands are met.

The videos show protesters defiant as several rounds were being shot. The shooting came on the back of the protesters refusing to leave the Lekki toll gate after the State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu declared a 24 hours curfew in the state from 4pm today.

    Even after the curfew was moved to 9pm they still went ahead to kill the leaders of tommorow. You wanted to send them off the streets right? Why didn’t you make use of tear gas or water and carried them. Why use bullets. You then went ahead to put off the lights of Lekki Toll Gate so that you will not be seen. If all soldiers can be brought to book let it be done. and let them know that it it’s starting

    With a heavy heart to all the youthful age who lost their life in fighting against oppression in Nigerian especially at the Lekki toll gate shooting by Nigerian soldiers today. Pls let’s proper documentation be done so that we can honor them as hero later.
