On Friday, Nigerian skit maker Adebowale Adedayo, also known as ‘ Mr Macaroni’, along with dozens of Nigerian youths, stormed the street of Lagos in a solidarity walk to mark the third memorial of the Lekki shooting that took place at the tollgate on 20 October 2020.
Despite heavy police presence, the skit maker and some young Nigerians besieged the Lekki Tollgate to honour those who lost their lives to police and military brutality.
The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Idowu Owohunwa, and other top police officers were also in the area and closely supervised the solidarity walk.
