Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Monday insisted that there only two recorded deaths and no bloodstain at the scene of the Lekki Toll Gate shooting.
Several reports had no fewer than thirty protesters died as a result of the shooting which had generated public outcry after security operatives believed to be soldiers fired live bullets into the crowd of protesters at the Lekki Toll Gate.
Sanwo-Olu in a chat with CNN Becky Anderson said
Two dead bodies that is what we have seen from all the morgues, that's what we have been going to hospitals, that's we have seen as arecord.
What has happened is that there have been so many footages that were seen, that people have shown, , but we have not seen bodies, we have not seen relatives, we have not seen anybody truly coming out to say I am a father or a mother to someone and I cannot find that person. Nobody has turned up. I have been to the ground; there is no scratch of blood anywhere thereFrom the footage that we could see, because there were cameras at that facility, it seems to me that they would be men in military uniform. That's what the footage show.
Sanwo-Olu who said is committed to a full investigation of the incident, assured that the Close Circuit Television,CCTV, footages will be part of the investigation by the judicial panel already set up to investigate the incident, which according to him has already started sitting on Monday, October 27,2020.
