Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu said it was the Nigeria army that were behind the attack on unarmed protesters at the Lekki Toll Gate and it has so far recorded two deaths.
Grassroots.ng monitored an interview of Sanwo-Olu with the CNN. He said so far no family member of deceased persons have come out to make any complaints that their loved one died in the incident.
He also stated that there are no bloodstains at the scene of the incident.
”Two dead bodies. That’s what we’ve seen from all the morgues, that’s what we’ve seen going to hospitals, that’s what we’ve seen as records.
”What has happened is that there have been so many footages that people have shown but we have not seen dead bodies, we have not seen relatives, we have not seen anybody coming up to say indeed I am a father or mother to someone and I cannot find the person. Nobody has come.
”I have been round and there is no splash of blood anywhere there.”
He claimed that the CCTV footage shows that men in military uniforms carried out the shooting. When asked if people will be held accountable for the attack, he said.
”They certainly would…we will do everything to ensure they are held accountable”
