As part of the revelations at the Lagos State Judicial Panel of Inquiry probing the alleged shooting of unarmed #EndSARS protesters by soldiers on the night of October 20 at the Lekki tollgate, the Commander of 81 Military Intelligence Brigade, Victoria Island, Lagos, Brigadier General Ahmed Taiwo also revealed how the military rescued the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, when hoodlums invaded his palace.

Taiwo said, “Both the Oba and his family were ferried to safety by the Nigerian Army,” Taiwo said while playing a video recording of the monarch and his family being rescued and taken into a military pickup truck.

“The business district areas were looted and offices were ransacked and destroyed. The hoodlums attempted to invade the Government House, but it was repelled.”
