The United States has tasked the Lagos State and federal governments to take suitable measures in addressing alleged abuses as well as the grievances of the victims of the #EndSARS protests.
The U.S. Mission in Nigeria in a statement issued on Tuesday called for the implementation of the recommendations of the Lagos State Judicial Panel of Inquiry.
The panel in its report submitted to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Monday indicted security officials of killing and injuring unarmed protesters at Lekki Toll Gate.
While welcoming the report, the U.S. said: “The United States welcomes the conclusion of the Lagos State Judicial Panel of Inquiry with the transmission of its final report. We look forward to the Lagos State government’s response as part of a process that represents an important mechanism of accountability regarding the #EndSARS protests and the events that took place near the Lekki Toll Gate on October 20, 2020.
“Those events led to serious allegations against some members of the security forces, and we look forward to the Lagos State and federal governments taking suitable measures to address those alleged abuses as well as the grievances of the victims and their families.”
