In a live broadcast by Lai Mohammed, FG responded to the Lagos Panel Report saying “it’s Fake News and there was no massacre at Lekki Tollgate”.
The minister of information, Alhaji Lai dismissed the report submitted by Lagos State EndSARS panel on Police brutality as a hoax. The minister who also called out CNN stated this today 23rd November 2021 at a News conference in Abuja.
Lai Mohammed stated that it was shocking that the same allegations made by Nigerians were compiled and submitted by the Lagos Panel as a report. He says “ its an intimidation of the majority by a minority”.
Contrary to the FG stand, the Panel representative has however stated that there are documented evidence to back up their report.
The Lagos Government is yet to make an official respond to the Panel report.
