#EndSARS: EBF Calls On President Buhari To Order Judicial Enquiry, Says Killings Of Peaceful Protesters By Soldiers Shameful

The Eastern Bar Forum has condemned in strong terms the
shooting, maiming and killing of unarmed protesters at the Lekki
Toll Gate in Lagos State, Nigeria.

This comes barely hours after the Lagos State Government imposed
a 24 hours curfew in the State. The curfew which was stated to
commence by 1600hrs was later shifted to 1900hrs to allow motorist
get home on time.

However, it is sad to note that even before the commencement of
the curfew, at about 1800hrs, cowards who call themselves Nigerian
soldiers opened fire on the protesters killing scores and maiming
uncountable numbers.

The Chairman of the Eastern Bar Forum, S. Long Williams Esq. on
behalf of the Forum condemns this cold blooded murder of peaceful
protesters at dawn who have done nothing but to air their
grievances in the most matured, orderly disciplined, coordinated
and peaceful manner.

The Chairman declared that is a shame that soldiers who are
supposed to be in the northeast, northwest and in the middlebelt
fighting Boko Haram, ISWAP, Bandits, Janjaweed Terrorist,
Kidnappers, Cattle Rustlers and killer Land Grabbers are busy
killing innocent, harmless , dedicated and focused Nigerians.

The Chairman urged the Nigerian Army to redeem its battered
cowardiced image by going to the North to degrade and decimate
criminal and terrorist ragtag gangs who are going about freely
maiming, looting, stealing, raping, killing and burning towns and
villages.

He called the President, General Mohammadu Buhari to immediately
as a matter of utmost urgency and concern order the troops out of
the streets and institute a high powered judicial inquiry into the
killings.

This is a shame, this is a show of cowardice, this is
unacceptable and all those responsible for this genocide must be
brought to account. This is not Tienanmen Square and we must never
allow it to be.
