Some Nigerian celebrities have taken to social media to react to the “hidden camera” found at the scene of shooting in the Lekki area of Lagos state.
On October 20, men in army uniform had opened fire on unarmed #EndSARS protesters at the Lekki toll gate.
Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governor of Lagos, had promised that the video footage of the shooting will be submitted to the judicial panel on police brutality.
But on Sunday, Babatunde Fashola, minister of works and housing, found the hidden camera while on a tour of the toll gate where the #EndSARS protesters demonstrated for 13 days before they were forcefully dispersed.
The discovery has since sparked a plethora of negative reactions on social media as prominent Nigerians, including celebrities, took to their pages to air their different views.
There has been a controversy over casualty figures.
Here is what some celebrities and prominent Nigerians had to say:
“These people really think we are daft and fools! CSI Lagosabeg see People Papa! What a shame and embarrassment! Look at where the camcorder lens of the camera is facing,” Peter Okoye wrote on Instagram.
I heard they conveniently found a Camera at the Toll Gate after LAWMA already cleaned the whole Crime scene.
I can wait to watch this film.This Government no rate us at all. https://t.co/Y3Qp6TCLyd

Really sad that Fashola is part of this pantomime. Is there a politician in Nigeria that genuinely cares about the youth? #EndSARS

U all joke with everything. Shame. They know u will all 4gt soon keep following their script.— PRESIDENT SAMKLEF (@SAMKLEF) October 26, 2020
LAWMA cleaned the scene,
They never found secret camera.Some private volunteer citizens also went to clean up the Lekki Toll Gate, they never found a secret camera.
Fashola leads a troop of clowns to the crime scene and suddenly secret camera appears.
Agent James Fashola 007.

I really rate Fashola but I'm ashamed and embarrassed that he allowed himself to be used for this kind of ridiculous manipulation. Even my 5-Year Old Nephew wouldn't subject himself to such silly show of shame.

Before we forget, we're asking for the footage from the CCTV you claimed were at the Lekki Toll Gate and not the camcorder you planted yourself.
We're not imbeciles abeg

Woke up to the news of the discovery of a camcorder at the lekki toll, a camcorder in 2020? Just sitting pretty, waiting for the investigation team? Survived a fire? No damage done to it from the chaos? Nigeria will make you walk naked in the streets, make it make sense, #Endsars

George Eastman invented the ‘Kodak Camera’ in 1885 and my good friend and brother Fashola discovered the ‘Strange Camera’ in 2020.
