A total of five peaceful protesters were killed today across the
country. 3 protesters were killed in Lagos, while 2 were killed in Kano.
The extra-judicial killings were unwarranted because the protesters
were peaceful and unarmed. Three peaceful protesters at the Pen Cinema
area of Agege, Lagos, allegedly shot by
one CSP Segun Fabunmi and Victor
Okafor, the DPO of Pen Cinema police station driving a vehicle with
registration number RS 101 LA. The police shot and killed after
brutally torturing him on the street.
Pictures of the brutality meted out on Ademola Aderinlo have been
widely circulated, the other two protesters killed in Lagos were shot
when the policemen tried to disperse protesters.
In Kano, the police also killed two other peaceful protesters today
at the protest rallies there. Many injuries have also been reported.
Helicopters gunships were seen hovering over the Gani Fawehinmi Park,
Ojota, where over 150,000 gathered at the venue of the Save Nigeria
Rally. All the protest rallies organised by the NLC and TUC terminated
at the Gani Fawehinmi Park.
