100 Days: Nigerians Remember Those That Died At The #EndSARS "Lekki Toll Gate" Massacre

Today marks 100 days since the Lekki Toll Gate massacre, and Nigerians have taken to social media to remember those that lost their lives during the fight for justice, saying they will never forget.

Recall that on Tuesday 20th October 2020 Nigerian soldiers were alleged to have shot live bullets at unarmed, peaceful protesters at the Lekki Toll Gate while they sang the country’s national anthem.

It was said that the peaceful #EndSARS protesters were waving the Nation's flag while singing the national anthem when nonstop gunshots were opened on them.

Many peaceful #EndSARS protesters lost their lives in the process as they demand justice against police brutality and injustice going on in the country.

Some names of those that died in the process were also listed as Nigerians thanked them for laying down their lives for a greater course.

See reactions below;

"I've interacted with many protesters who were injured at Lekki Toll Gate, plus friends/families of the dead. None of them is a hoodlum as Lai Mohammed keeps saying.

"Soldiers/policemen gunned down some of the country's most patriotic souls for no reason. And in a democracy"

"It is 100 days after the Lekki Toll Gate Massacre.

Not one soldier arrested.

Not one general interrogated officially.

Not one govt official held responsible.

Not one Nigerian army head held accountable.

Young people shot, injured, killed.

This will never ever be okay #EndSARS"
