#EndSarsMemorial: Lekki Massacre Fake, CNN, Amnesty International Lied – Lai Mohammed

Nobody Can Stop Nigerian Government From Prosecuting #EndSARS Protesters – Lai Mohammed Says

The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed has claimed that the massacre of protesters at Lekki tollgate during the #ENDSARS protest didn’t happen.

Lai Mohammed on Wednesday said the narrative by CNN that Nigerian soldiers massacred protesters at the Lekki tollgate in Lagos State last year was ‘fake news’.

He stated this in a statement tagged: “Phantom Massacre at Lekki tollgate” to mark the one-year anniversary of the protest.

According to Mohammed: “Today marks the first anniversary of the phantom massacre at Lekki Toll Gate in Lagos, which was the culmination of an otherwise peaceful protest that was later hijacked by hoodlums.

At earlier press conferences, I had called the reported massacre at the toll gate the first massacre in the world without blood or bodies.

“One year later, and despite ample opportunities for the families of those allegedly killed and those alleging a massacre to present evidence, there has been none: No bodies, no families, no convincing evidence, nothing.

Where are the families of those who were reportedly killed at the toll gate? Did they show up at the Judicial Panel of Inquiry? If not, why?

“Sadly, the champions of a massacre at the Lekki Toll Gate, including Amnesty International and CNN, have continued to shamelessly hold on to their unproven stand.

Recall, gentlemen, that after bandying different figures, Amnesty International finally settled at about 12 people killed.

“On its part, CNN went from 38 people killed to two to just one, after a supposed global exclusive even when the network had no reporter on ground at the Lekki Toll Gate on Oct. 20th, 2020.

“On Monday, the Judicial Panel of Inquiry that was set up by the Lagos State Government after the EndSARS protest wrapped up its sitting.

During the sitting, CNN was summoned but it never showed up, thus missing a great opportunity to prove its allegation of massacre at the toll gate.”

The minister also accused Amnesty International of speculating fake news regarding the EndSARS massacre at Lekki Tollgate.

Mohammed added: “Also, Amnesty International had a golden opportunity to convince the world, but it rather opted for issuing meaningless press releases.

“In its latest attempt to grasp at straws and redeem whatever is left of its battered credibility on this issue, CNN has continued with its baseless report that soldiers shot at protesters.”
