#OccupyLekkiTollGate: Buhari’s Aide Commends NPF for ‘professional’ conduct, says nobody was hurt

Lauretta-Onochie

An aide to President Muhammadu Buhari on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie, has commended the Nigeria Police Force, NPF, over what she described as the professional conduct of its operatives on Saturday.

In a series of tweets on Sunday, Onochie said nobody was hurt during the #OccupyLekkiTollGate protest in Lagos yesterday.

“Kudos to the Nigerian Police for the professional manner it operated at Lekki yesterday. Nobody was hurt,” she tweeted.

“Best of all, no police officer was killed nor roasted and eaten. We must applaud you for doing well so that you can take our criticisms of your shortcomings in good faith. Thank you.”

The protest was in reaction to the decision of the Judicial Panel of Inquiry and Restitution to return control of the Lekki Toll Gate plaza to its owners, the Lekki Concession Company (LCC).

The toll gate had been one of the major converging points for the protesters in Lagos last year and was also the location for the infamous #LekkiShootings, masterminded by security operatives particularly men of the Nigerian Army.
