#EndSARS: “We’re Unhappy Sanwo-Olu Denied Inviting Us” — Army Tells Panel

A Brigadier General of the Nigerian Army has disclosed that the Governor of Lagos, Babajide Sanwo-olu did invite them to intervene in the #EndSARS protests that held in Lagos last month.

Ahmed Taiwo, on Saturday revealed that the Nigerian Army is not happy with Mr Sanwo-Olu for denying that he didn’t invite soldiers to restore peace and order in the state.

He shocked panel members when he said that the governor called for military support on October 20, shortly after the protests became chaotic.

“I spoke with the governor and said the army was unhappy that he said he did not ask the army to intervene. But I’m sure, after we’ve watched everything, we saw he had more than reasonable grounds to ask he army to intervene,”.

“Perhaps, it was the way everything went that made him say so.” he said.
