US URGES FULL IMPLEMENTATION OF LAGOS ENDSARS PANEL REPORT

The United States Mission in Nigeria has joined the calls for Lagos State Government to fully implement the recommendations of the just concluded EndSars panel report. 


The Mission said in a statement on Tuesday that it welcomes the conclusion of the Lagos State Judicial Panel of Inquiry with the transmission of its final report. 


"We look forward to the Lagos State Government’s response as part of a process that represents an important mechanism of accountability regarding the #EndSARS protests and the events that took place near the Lekki Toll Gate on October 20, 2020. 


"Those events led to serious allegations against some members of the Security Forces, and we look forward to the Lagos State and Federal Governments taking suitable measures to address those alleged abuses as well as the grievances of the victims and their families", the statement read in part. 


The Mission urged the Lagos State Government to implement the contents of the expected white paper for the sake of peace, justice and democracy.
