BREAKING: #EndSARSMemorial: Activists, Protesters Begin Car Procession At Lekki Tollgate

In memory of last year’s #EndSARS protests, a car procession is currently taking place at the Lekki tollgate in Lagos.

This is going on despite a ban on protests in Lagos and the heavy presence of armed police personnel at the tollgate.

Punch Newspaper reports that the activists who turned up at the tollgate with their cars were seen waving Nigerian flags from inside the vehicles and honking the horns while singing solidarity songs.

The News platform had earlier reported that operatives of the Lagos State Police Command arrested two protesters at the Lekki tollgate where the #EndSARS Memorial Protest is scheduled to hold in the state today.

One of those arrested claimed to be a journalist while the other was seen carrying a placard.

The police had reportedly warned that anyone seen at the tollgate without an ID card will be arrested.

Meanwhile, the 2019 presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore and activist, Deji Adeyanju are reportedly leading the Abuja #EndSAR anniversary protest.
