Reno Omokri, a Nigerian sociopolitical activist, has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of arranging the massacre of EndSARS protesters last year at the Lekki Tollgate in Lagos State.
Buhari, according to Omokri, ordered the protesters’ deaths “out of self-interest.”
He made his assertion based on Buhari’s remark about the demonstration.
The former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, in a tweet wrote:
“To prove to you that Buhari personally ordered the #LekkiMassacre of innocent, unarmed, peaceful #EndSARS protesters, just go and rewatch his June 10, 2021 AriseTV interview, where he accused #EndSARS protesters of wanting to “remove me”. Buhari killed them out of self interest!”
WITHIN NIGERIA reports that some Nigerian youths were killed on October 20, 2020, at the Lekki Toll Gate in Lagos State.
At the toll gate, the youths were protesting police brutality when troops arrived and opened fire.
Despite reports of deaths, the Nigerian government has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing at the location, stating that no one was murdered.
However, the Lagos State EndSARS panel on Monday submitted its report and described the incident at the tollgate as a massacre.
