Some aggrieved women, who claimed to have lost their loved ones during the October 20, 2020, Lekki Toll Gate shooting by soldiers, yesterday, stormed the Ikoyi residence of the Lagos State deputy governor, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat, in protest over the incident.
To express their grievances, the women group organized the protest led by Adetoun Onajobi, popularly known as Just Adetoun, one of the EndSARS protesters Sanwo-Olu invited for a peace walk.
The group, who could not get the attention of the Deputy Governor, later dispersed after being prevailed on to leave by the aides who said the deputy Governor was not available at the particular time.
But a senior aide of the deputy governor, who spoke in confidence, confirmed the protest, saying “The protest took place. We were told by the aides at the residence but the Deputy Governor was not around to receive them as he was at two different state assignments in Victoria Island and Ikeja of the state.”
