Several persons were allegedly feared killed, while others sustained gunshot injuries as security operatives fired live ammunition on #EndSARS protesters at the Lekki Toll Gate, Lagos.

The armed operatives, according to reports, invaded the area and started shooting sporadically on the unarmed peaceful protesters, resulting in casualties.

The Lekki Toll Gate has been one of the major converging points for the peaceful protests against police brutality.

The attack on the unarmed and peaceful protesters occurred hours after the Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State, announced a 24-hour curfew following the violence that erupted in the parts of the state.

Some street urchins, who hijacked the protests, caused mayhem in parts of Lagos and set ablaze Orile and Amukoko police stations.
