BREAKING: #EndSARS: Protesters shut down Lekki toll gate (Video)

OnyxNews Nigeria reports that there is heavy gridlock on Lekki toll gate as #EndSARS protesters shut down the expressway earlier today.

This online news platform reports that #EndSARS protesters hit the Lekki Toll Gate section of the Lekki-Epe Expressway, Lagos State, to resume demonstrations even with the dissolution of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the Nigeria Police Force.

The Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, on Sunday, announced the disbandment of the police unit after days of online and offline protests.

Though the protesters on Monday want the authorities to carry out psychological evaluation and re-training of all dismissed SARS officers before they are redeployed.

They also asked for the release of all arrested protesters, justice for all dead victims of police brutality and appropriate compensation for their families.

OnyxNews Nigeria gathered that the protesters also called for increased salaries for police officers and the establishment of an independent body to oversee the investigation and prosecution of all reports of police misconduct within 10 days.
