Lagos governorship candidate of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 general elections, Dr Abdul-Azeez Olajide Adediran (JANDOR), has expressed shock over the state government’s plan to conduct mass burial for 103 victims of the year 2020 #EndSARS protest, describing the development as vindication of panel report on Lekki Toll Gate massacre. It would be recalled that the Lagos State government has in its latest response insisted that no life was lost during the protest that took place at the Lekki Toll Gate. JANDOR condemned what he described as the “callous and inhuman treatment of innocent citizens and the desecration of their memory by the brazen-faced denial of their needless and avoidable murder”. He also posited that Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu should be prosecuted if found guilty. “This of course is imminent with the state of the proceeding at the ongoing Lagos State Election Petition Tribunal,” Jandor said.
