The United Nations has condemned the military for attacking #EndSARS protesters at the Lekki Tollgate on Tuesday in Lagos.
This was made known in a statement issued by the Stephane Dujarric, spokesman to António Guterres, UN secretary-general.
He said it is important the federal government probes the incident and bring the perpetrators to book.
“The Secretary-General is following recent developments in Nigeria and calls for an end to reported police brutality and abuses. He condemns the violent escalation on 20 October in Lagos which resulted in multiple deaths and caused many injuries. He expresses his condolences to the bereaved families and wishes a speedy recovery to those injured,” the statement on the UN website read.
