Osinbajo Speaks On Lekki Shooting, Says I Stand With Lagos
Professor Yemi Osinbajo, Nigeria’s Vice President, has reacted to the shooting of peaceful #EndSARS protesters in Lekki, Lagos by men of the Nigerian Army.
Speaking via his official Twitter handle, the vice president said while some losses are irreplaceable, he vowed that he will get justice for all of them.
Men of the Nigerian army had opened fire on the peaceful protesters on Tuesday night following the announcement of a curfew by the Lagos state government.
My heart goes out to all the victims of the Lekki shootings, and also the policemen and all other men and women who lost their lives in the past few days in different parts of Lagos & other states.

I spoke to some of those in hospital. The pain of these terrible events is palpable in our towns and cities, and some losses are irreplaceable, but we can and will get justice for all of them. I stand with Lagos & all other affected states in these trying times.
