In a bid to unravel claims of mass killings by the military at the Lekki toll gate in Lagos during the EndSARS protest, the retired Justice Doris Okuwobi-led Judicial of Inquiry for Restitution for Victims of SARS and the Lekki shootings, yesterday paid an unscheduled visit to the Military Hospital in Ikoyi, in search of its mortuary.

There had been speculations that the bodies of some protesters were dumped at the mortuary after being allegedly killed by soldiers while trying to dislodge them at the toll gate.

But gaining access to the mortuary was initially tough following a mild standoff between of the and soldiers manning the gate of the military hospital.

The soldiers claimed that they were not aware of their coming and that it was against protocol coming without prior notice.

After initial resistance by the soldiers for about 30 minutes, the were eventually allowed into the premises of the hospital. The soldiers apparently got approval from their superiors to allow the into the hospital.

While inside, they were conducted round the military facility by General A. I. Taiwo. Surprisingly, no mortuary was found at the facility during the inspection.

General Taiwo disclosed to the that the hospital did not have a mortuary.

The were also informed that the hospital had been under renovation in the past one year.

Addressing journalists before they were allowed into the military hospital, a member of the , Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, SAN, said the had “confidential information” about the military hospital relevant to the investigation of the Lekki shootings of Tuesday, October 20, 2020.

He said, “We are exercising our mandate on behalf of the governor of Lagos State under the tribunal laws.

“We have already inspected the Lekki toll gate today (yesterday) and we are here to pay an unscheduled visit to the mortuary of the Military Hospital.

“We have confidential information concerning certain events that took place at the hospital here and we are waiting for them to grant us access to inspect the mortuary because we have reasons to believe that that facility is relevant to our investigation.

“We don’t want to make any conclusions yet until we get access to that mortuary. We have a pathologist with us who is here to help us conduct medical examination of bodies in the mortuary.”

But all the claims by the turned out to be a ruse.

of the Judicial of Inquiry had earlier visited the Lekki tollgate scene of the shootings where five bullet shells were found.

During the visit, the Managing Director of the Lekki Concession Company (LCC), operators of the tollgate, Mr. Abayomi Omomuwa, who conducted of the round the facility, revealed that the footage of what transpired at the toll plaza on October 20 was intact.

He said a camera on the mast worked until the carnage on Wednesday, October 21, 2020.

He said: “We are yet to carry out our private investigation into the shootings. Yes, we have the footage intact but there has been no investigation or document from us on the shootings.

“We have the toll plaza one and the Lekki toll bridge which is also known as TP3. We have the last location which is around the Chevron area. We don’t collect toll there. It is our main office and that is the Toll Plaza two. This is where the shooting of that day occurred.

Life holds many changes but the truth shall prevail

Do Nigerians noticed the real tribalist on here since tribalism has reduced as they can't hold the urge to use the word "IPOB, Afonja etc"

Every evil against south shall perish

From the facility is under renovation to there is no morgue.

I’m telling you... from you can’t come in because we don’t know you were coming to no mortuary... I HATE Nigeria , I HATE Buhari

Damnnn niggarrrr
Isoright
Confused bunch of miscreants called army
30 minutes is enough for them to clean up their mess
But no matter what we will get them

Justdare:

I am pretty certain you are smart going by a lot of your oppinions, but wrong on this son.
The visit was impromptu for starters and 30 mins is not enough to make a hospital mortuary disappear.
There are a lot of cover ups but this seem as plain as it gets.

Ogbeni there are lot of no good sons and daughters of bitches out there in the Nigerian army

First they denied being there
After that they agreed they were there but they didn't use live bullet
They said it was blank ammunition

Now they denied from accessing the morgue for 30 minutes...it is now obvious the army is up to no good

God punish enemies of this country.

Una Photoshop photos wey you cooked got burned badly...

Choi, this news go make some people dump irrelevant more on NL

Some findings will still be covered up.....This is Nigeria

I believe the army here.

The truth shall be known eventually. What really happened on that night.

Oga o. Someday soon, the Truth will find its way out. RIP to the fallen heroes. May their families find solace!

Messed up country. They stayed for almost 30mins at the gate before gaining entrance, a typical Nigerian would have cleaned his house and put things in order. Of course you only see what they want you to see and not what you want to see. Many people think they will live forever forgetting someone was once at that position they are today. I believe there’s more to this Toll gate protest but nevertheless. We all lives ones. Life is meaningless.

I smell cover up here ....from the usual Nigeria army lies

Although what was the judicial expecting to get out of this ...a clear transparent investigation? No not in this lieing country nobody believes this politicians and the army any more

We will make it right.... enough is enough

Life's meaningless

Naija una con3

Don't let them distract you with TRIBALISM.

THEY EVIL AFFECTS ALL AND SUNDRY.

Police no good pay.
Soldiers no good pay.
Teachers no good pay.
Health workers no good pay.

But lawmaker that is sent by his people to attract development only develops him/herself with a mountain of pays and allowances.

#WakeUp9jaYouths

If there are camera footages why not go ahead and let's start the investigation from there? Abi they're waiting for hyena to come and swallow it first

The sequence of events especially as regards the involvement of the army have affirmed that the army is not an agency with integrity.Imagine denying involvement in the #EndSARS Lekki shootings only to later made a volte face.

They initially denied the access to government property simply to allow them do a cover up.Now a whole MHL being renovated have no morgue? Haba! Even MH Ibadan that is smaller than that of Lagos have a morgue.
The army can only continue to deceive itself.

No mortuary ké
Naija I hail thee oooo

Click LIKE if this post reminds you of that Fela's song "Army arrangement"

If the is looking for?for the lekki victims....




They should go with Fashola the agent shield!!




He will discover the victims in no time.....

Isn’t it obvious Dj switch lied ?or why are they looking for something that wasn’t lost

Truth will surely prevail.
My own is that why is there an islamic inscription on the Army's logo? I thought Nigeria is a secular state.
We need to reset this country ASAP!

This life sef.

How did a protest that was directed to initiate Reforms in the POLICE end up becoming an ARMY wahala?

Just see as ARMY just go buy market on top POLICE matter!!!

This is why people should learn to mind their own business.

Flier:
Isn’t it obvious Dj switch lied ?or why are they looking for something that wasn’t lost

So yoy believe an hospital won't have a mortuary.
you're sic man
