My Hypothesis about Lekki Incident

After waiting for over 72hrs for victims of Lekki incident to be identified despite the call by @jidesanwoolu @BBCWorld & many more, I am compelled to begin to string events together in an effort to make sense of what actually happened
My hypothesis is that Lekki incident was a display of a well rehearsed script, directed by a very talented director.
Why did I said this?
1. It's over 72hrs & we still don't have the identity of the victims. Could it be because they don't exist?
2. The only eyewitness to the arrival of the so called military was a foreign journalist who claimed to see people arriving on bikes & started shooting sporadically. Though she didn't back up her claim with any video, I will assume she is right because nobody has contradicted her
3. The video that was widely shared, that showed the soldiers shooting has been widely dismissed as either doctored or badly directed movie scene. I won't go into detail analysis in this thread but I will willing to explain if anybody ask
4. Another eyewitness was DJ switch, who did a live video on instagram while the incident was going on. Questions she needs to answer includes: How she managed to do live coverage at that close proximity to the soldiers & they didn't harm her?
78, 46 or 15, corpses were dropped in front of the soldiers & who took them away. However, she needs to explain why the soldiers didn't shoot at them while doing that & we need a better explanation to why her phone suddenly went dead when the soldiers were taking the corpses away
5. There was no blood stains at the scene, even if it was cleaned up, I don't believe everything within the pores of the road will disappear except there was a serious washing & mopping of the road. Did the soldiers washed & mopped up the road without anyone witnessing it?
Consequent upon the reasons adduced above, I am forced to hypothesize what happened at Lekki thus:
Some people ab initio saw #EndSarsProtests as an avenue to bring Nigeria down. They needed a reaction frm government to gain international symphaty & legitimize their cause
The government seems ahead of them, hence, the quick acceptance of all conditions. Afterward, they started blocking roads for a reaction but still no reaction from government. Then the thugs attacks which probably was borne out of frustration
Declaration of curfew was a perfect alibi & that's why they encouraged innocent people to defile the curfew by remaining at Lekki. We know those behind this & I believe they will answer in the course of time. They also started the news that CCTV cameras at Lekki was removed
The cover of d night gave them a perfect environment to act out there plan. Few of them, probably d private security they have bn using came in a camouflage & started shooting empty shell into d air to cause panic among the innocent protesters, hence, the empty shells at d scene
In the midst of the chaos, few of them moved towards d protesters & an already prepared camera man or woman followed from d back to record & edit the first video that went viral. While this was going on, members of d caucus already made up with effects like gun shots took d stage
DJ switch, who I believe is part of d plan quickly started her life video showing the dead & injured been carried towards the fake soldiers. That probably explains her courage in the face of " flying bullets" & why d soldiers did nothing to those carrying the corpses & d doctor
With the pandemonium that ensued afterward & the reaction from online audience, she quickly switched off the camera & the "injured & dead" stood up & disappeared into the night. The deed has been done & mission accomplished
How can we get to the root of this?
1.The government needs to release the video footage recorded by the CCTV cameras at the tollgate asap if it exist.
2. DJ switch, the doctor & all those who were first to share the news should be invited for questioning
3. The leaders of #EndSarsProtests should be invited also for questioning
4. The source of funding for the protest should be investigated

We cannot sweep this under the carpet, especially considering the carnage all over the country
If soldiers killed people at Lekki, it should be thoroughly investigated & those found culpable should be brought to book, no matter their status.
If it is found otherwise, the highest level of punishment should be meted out to all involved to serve as deterrent
Remember that this is an hypothesis, I will change my stand & apologize when I am presented with a contrary view.

Thank you

God bless Nigeria
