CONTRARY to Nigerians' expectations of some form of peaceful walk by youths to mark the third anniversary of the #EndSARS protest, there was no sign of any gathering in the early hours of Friday, October 20, 2023, at the Lekki Toll Gate in Lagos State.
Media reports state that on Thursday, October 19, 2023, fliers were posted on various social media platforms, stating that a peaceful walk would be held at Lekki Toll Gate on Friday to commemorate this anniversary.
However, the Spokesperson of the Lagos State Command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, stressed that no gathering or convergence of any kind would be permitted around the tollgate.
