Top Nigerian musician Peter Okoye has taken to Twitter to strongly oppose the approval for reopening of Lekki Toll Gate.
The Lagos State Judicial Panel of Inquiry probing the alleged killing of #EndSARS protesters by soldiers at the Lekki tollgate on 20th October 2020, had approved the reopening of the toll plaza and returned control of the Lekki toll gate plaza to its owners, the Lekki Concession Company (LCC). The Chairman of the panel, Justice Doris Okuwobi, delivered the ruling on Saturday 7th February 2020.
However, youth representatives Rinu Oduala and Majekodunmi Temitope kicked against the decision, describing it as an act to obstruct justice. They opined that the Lekki toll gate should remain shut till the investigation is concluded by the judicial panel.
Peter Okoye, kicked against the ruling, declaring that the toll gate will not be opened until justice is served.
