#OccupyLekkiTollGate Protests Has Began across major cities in Lagos.
Truetells Nigeria learnt that of the major reasons behind the protest is some houses were demolished in Ibeju-Lekki allegedly because the residents witnessed the Lekki Toll-Gate shootings in October.
In a video posted by Omoyele Sowore, the people were seen pleading for help as they have been rendered homeless.
Recall that a protest is currently being planned for tomorrow against the re-opening of Lekki Toll-Gate which was announced last week.

Going to do a thread of the violence going on at Ilaje area of Ajah. The question for me is how do you have the resources to “quell” a PEACEFUL protest (#OccupyLekkiTollGate) but leave these THUGS to roam the streets and in this manner. Lagos needs DEFENDING really but from thugs pic.twitter.com/DU2zfcj7vT
