The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Burutai, has argued that nobody was killed during the End SARS protest at Lekki toll gate in Lagos State.
Buratai maintained that there was no corpse during the
protest at Lekki toll gate.
The Army chief spoke at the decoration of 39 newly promoted
Major Generals, yesterday in Abuja.
He stressed that those claiming protesters were killed were
seeing double.
Buratai said: “I am glad that we held the Spiritual Warfare
Seminar on Wednesday and most of the decorated Generals today are graduates of
the Spiritual Warfare Seminar.
“I must say that the Spiritual Warfare Seminar we had last
time, helped us during the last #EndSARS protest to the extent that there was
no single corpse, but some persons were seeing double at Lekki Toll Gate in
Lagos State.”
Several protesters demonstrating against bad governance were
reported killed by soldiers at the Lekki toll gate.
Popular Nigerian Disc Jockey, Obianuju Catherine Udeh, also
known as DJ Switch, had alleged that soldiers shot and killed some of the
people protesting at Lekki toll gate.
However, the 81 Division of the Nigerian Army had maintained
that soldiers drafted to the scene didn’t kill any protester.
The Army, however, admitted that soldiers were at the venue
of the protest but did not kill anybody.
