#EndSARS protesters at Lekki Toll Gate have been attacked by suspected thugs.
They were attacked in the early hours of Friday, October 16, 2020 as they camped at the venue of the protest.
The #EndSARS protesters say a truck rammed into cars parked around the area.
Photos from the scene show cars destroyed, including a Range Rover and a Lexus.
This isn’t the first alleged attack on End SARS protesters. On Thursday, October 15, thugs poured out of a huge bus to attack protesters in Alausa, Ikeja, Lagos. They were armed with machetes and other harmful objects. Prior to that, protesters in Abuja were attacked on Wednesday, October 14, by thugs.
To protect themselves, protest organizers hired private security to guard protesters across different states in the country. However, the alleged attack at Lekki happened very early and took protesters by surprise.
