There have been reports of shooting at the location of an #EndSARS protest in Lekki, a wealthy suburb of Lagos, Nigeria. A number of people are reported killed and injured.
Armed soldiers were seen barricading the protest site moments before the shooting. It is not yet clear how many people were injured or killed, but social media footage streamed live from the scene shows protesters attending to the wounded.
The rights group @amnesty says it has received credible evidence that excessive force was used against protesters in Lagos.
Lagos governor @jidesanwoolu says he has ordered an investigation into the incident. https://twitter.com/followlasg/status/1318654647238823943 https://twitter.com/briticoyemo/status/1318657680299511809
The shooting comes on the second day of widespread reports of road blocks and violence across Nigeria. Round the clock curfews have also been imposed in the state of Ekiti and the city of Jos.
