Human Rights lawyer, Femi Falana, SAN, on Monday disclosed that the barracks where the military officers that shot at innocent Nigerians at the Lekki toll gate has been identified.

There were reports that soldiers shot and killed some End SARS protesters while singing the National anthem at the Lekki toll gate last Tuesday.

The military, however, refused to speak on the development which has been condemned by Nigerians.

Falana while speaking on Arise TV insisted that soldiers were present at the Lekki toll gate shooting.

According to Falana: “We have already identified the barracks where the soldiers left for Lekki, we have already identified the barracks.”

“The President was likely to have been told, soldiers were ordered, so, I want to believe that was why it was not addressed and they said it was a rumour but I think the facts are emerging now, that indeed soldiers went to Lekki, indeed they fired at protesters and indeed some of the protesters at least two have been officially acknowledged to have died from gunshot wounds.”
