The Nigerian Army has said with the benefit of hindsight, it would not have taken a different action if presented again with a scenario similar to the October 20 shooting incident at the Lekki Tollgate. The Nigerian Army made the assertion on Saturday at the Lagos State Judicial Panel of Inquiry for Restitution for Victims of SARS Related Abuses and Other Matters.

Representing the Army was Brig.-Gen. Ahmed Taiwo, Commander of the 81 Division, Military Intelligence Brigade, Victoria Island. He made the assertion while being cross-examined by the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA).

“Given the same set of circumstances, the military would have acted in the same way. After every operation, we usually do an After Action Review and come up with lessons learnt. “I have looked at the tollgate issue with the same set of facts. We wouldn’t have acted differently,” he said.

Responding to questions from Mr Bernard Oniga, the lawyer representing the NBA, the witness explained why the army did not take the alternative route which avoided the tollgate if they were clearing up the Eti-Osa corridor as claimed.“The discretion was at the hands of the commander, they were attacked by hoodlums and they responded,” he said.

I'm literally speechless. If you thought they lied because they were ashamed of what they did, you were wrong.

Nigeria is a joke mehn

Our leaders get away with so much atrocities in this country.

That's why Gowon, Obasanjo, Tinubu and Sanwo Olu are still alive and free.

They have never done same thing against BH and won. Common Niger Republic is teaching them how to deal with terrorists.Sick psychos are in charge of this nation.

The most corrupt instutute in nigeria is the NA...

The souls of the departed will never rest in peace except if they were genuinely born again.

You that's reading this, if you die in SIN your soul will also not find peace.


THERE'S NO PEACE FOR THE WICKED.

They acted professionally

People keep on posting half truth to destroy the Nigerian army.

We have watched videos upon videos and all the videos showed that the army acted professionally.

I will not forgive this government.. I will not forgive President Mohammadu Buhari until all the fake news purveyors and evil celebrities, whose nefarious activities resulted in the death of innocent people and the destruction of public and private facilities, are brought to book...

The other day, Aisha Yesufu confessed that the ghosts of the people her propaganda killed were cursing her in the Mosque and everywhere she goes.. But that's just the tip of the iceberg compared to the DOOM that will soon befall her and her demonic folks..

President Mohammadu Buhari should bring them all to justice..

#NigeriaMustBeGreatByFireByForce!

God bless Nigeria..

Hmmmmmm..... How about not "turning off the lights and removing the Cameras" as alleged Sir?

I suppose the rest protesters would have hearken to the voice of reason especially when Sega Link and others has voiced out against continuing.

Fear and intimidation are some of government’s most dangerous tools of dictatorship and control.. All we have to do is to stand and keep standing erect, that alone is a sure way to triumphant victory..

I was basking in my random thoughts...

If the colonial masters could leave Nigeria in the hands of the northerners...

If the so called educated Awos and Ziks accepted...

Till date the North decides many factors that shapes Nigeria...

I can boldly say the northerners do the hardest and the easiest jobs in Nigeria.

Same can be said about them been the poorest and the richest.

There something about the north that when it sneezes, the whole nation catch cold.

Joker's zombie

Continue disgracing your family mumu man

This whole saga may be swept under the carpet as usual...

unrepentant terrorist.

Assuming the protesters had guns and explosives with them,the cowards wouldn't have gone there o.. If you guys are so tough ,go and face bokoharam .

Such impunity.
The End SARS protest failed woefully!!!
Those poor souls died for nothing!!!
The police is still being cruel and hostile to innocent citizens.
Nigerian leaders are still looting with passion.
Today I read in the news that brand new SUVs procured for senators and house of Reps members were ready for distribution even amidst the recession. And the Nigerian army isn't remorseful about murdering unarmed protesters in cold blood.
1 Dollar is now N480
So tell me again, what did we achieve??

From d top to d last

Awon weyrey

Nigeria must disintegrate to save lives. The northerners can then kill themselves

See his head

I don't just blame, is not their fault and it will never be their fault.
A leopard does not change its colour, some saw it coming and spoke against the tyrant while some saw it but turned the other side all bcs of their selfish interest.
I keep telling people never support evil bcs it has not gotten to u. When rights were abused by this same useless govt some set of this useless country supported, now the gragon has finally unleashed its self.
Na all of us go suffer am
