The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed has reacted to an investigative report on the EndSars October 20 Lekki shootings, published by US-based media giant, CNN.
According to him, CNN should be sanctioned for misinformation and irresponsible reporting.
Mohammed who described the CNN report on EndSars as one-dimensional and lacking in balance, also validated a report done by the BBC, which he claimed was based more on facts.
The Minister however insisted that the military fired blank bullets into the air and not at the crowd. He has therefore urged that persons who have alleged massacres, as well as relatives with missing family members, report at the judicial panel to lay official complaints.
He stressed further that the CNN report conveniently excluded the looting, violence by citizens, 269 private facilities burnt and looted, 243 govt facilities vandalized; adding that security agents deserve commendation and not condemnation.
