The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, has described the leaked report of the Lagos State panel as fake news.
Mohammed said this at a press conference in Abuja on Tuesday.
The nine-member panel had in its leaked report alleged that at least nine persons were killed at the Lekki toll plaza when soldiers and policemen stormed the scene to disperse protesters on October 20, 2020.
However, Mohammed described the allegations as “tales by moonlight”.
He insisted that there was no “massacre” at the Lekki toll gate on October 20, 2020.
Mohammed described the EndSARS report submitted by the Lagos judicial panel of inquiry on restitution for victims of SARS related abuses and other matters as an “intimidation of the majority by a minority”.
According to him, the panel shockingly compiled and submitted allegations made by Nigerians.
