We protested against violence, and they responded with more violence. We spoke up about getting beaten, extorted and killed - they responded with more killing. Our hearts are broken but our spirits will never die.

According to livestreamers, the military is currently shooting at #EndSARS protesters who are still at the Lekki toll gate in Lagos. They switched off the electricity so they can't be filmed effectively https://t.co/qoi1mYlSvb
Lekki Toll Gate Massacre
Date: Oct 20, 2020
Venue: Lekki Toll Gate
Armed soldiers fired live rounds at unarmed protesters at a peaceful roadblock in response to a government imposed curfew. The people were protesting police brutality and extra-judicial killings.
PASS IT ON!!
I was at the toll earlier today and I was present when protesters unanimously agreed that when soldiers showed up they would sit and not engage. They would not speak to or provoke them. There is absolutely no need to shoot at them. This is disgraceful.
The murderous Nigerian govt has blocked our account because we helped provide healthcare to peaceful #EndSARS protesters whom they brutalized and shot at. This is in gross contravention of all conventions and basic humanity. We will meet this evil evil evil govt in court!
