#EndSARS 2: Soldiers, Police besiege Lekki Tollgate over protest scare

By Gabriel Atumeyi

Security operatives have besieged the Lekki Tollgate in Lagos to prevent another #EndSARS protests.

The soldiers and policemen were said to have arrived the scene in four trucks on Monday morning.

365Daily gathered that the gun-wielding security operatives placed themselves in strategic locations around the area.

It was also learnt that youths have started gathering around the Tollgate to resume the protest.

In October, the #EndSARS protest took place at Lekki and at different locations in the state for more than two weeks.

The protest was later hijacked by hoodlums which led to loss of lives and property.

On October 20, soldiers invaded the Lekki Tollgate and allegedly shot some of the protesters.

In November, Mohammed Adamu, the inspector-general of police (IGP), said the force would never allow another type of #EndSARS protest again, adding that the police is ready to face anyone who participates in the protest.

President Muhammadu Buhari had also said the government would prevent a repeat of the protest.
