Brigadier General Ahmed Ibrahim. T. Taiwo, commander 81 Military intelligence Brigade of the Nigerian Army has said that soldiers came to the scene of the Lekki toll gate fracas after the men of the Nigerian police were overran by hoodlums.

He also showed a video of hoodlums making away with arms and ammunition after the Orile Iganmu Police station,. Ijora was burnt down by the hoodlums.

He said that no soldier or security agents would watch while people were being killed and properties were burnt down.

He said that this was the situation when Gov. Sanwo-Olu imposed the 24 hours curfew and appealed to the military to intervene.

The Army had submitted the names of three Lieutenant Generals and a Lieutenant Colonel who will testify before the panel probing the alleged shooting of #EndSARS protesters by soldiers on the night of October 20 at the Lekki Tollgate in Lagos.

The Army had vehemently denied shooting at or killing any of the protesting youths and told the panel that it was ready to show videos capturing its activities at the tollgate on the night of 20 October.
