Footage viewed by the Lekki Panel of Judicial Inquiry probing the alleged killing of #EndSARS protesters by soldiers at the Lekki tollgate has given fresh insights into events that occurred on the night of October 20.
The footage showed that the scene was calm until about 6.43 pm when people could be seen running towards the tollgate from the Oriental Hotel end.
Two minutes later, at 6.45 pm, military trucks with flashing headlights arrived the scene. There were no fewer than seven of them.

Two minutes later, at 6.55 pm, one of the military vehicles drove through the tollgate to the other end where the crowd of protesters was gathered.
