A memorial of the 2020 Lekki massacre will hold on Thursday, 2022 at the Lekki area of Lagos State.

The memorial is to commemorate the death of several youths who were allegedly killed by security forces at the Lekki Tollgate on Tuesday, October 20, 2020.

The planned memorial was disclosed in a flier shared by entertainer, Folarin Falana aka Falz the Bahd guy, on his Instagram page.

According to the flier, participants would walk and drive to the tollgate where the Nigerian army allegedly opened fire on armless protesters who were demanding an end to police brutality.

Part of the banner read, “#EndSARS Memorial 2.0 procession. In memory of those who were killed on October 20, 2022, and those we have lost to police brutality, we will walk and drive through the toll gate, blast horns, sing and chat in unison through the toll gate, wave our flags.”
