A lawyer, Tola Onayemi, who provides legal aid for #EndSARS protesters has revealed that police is denying lawyers access to the protesters arrested in different batches at the Lekki Tollgate on Saturday morning.
A total of 19 peaceful protesters including popular commedian, Mr. Macaroni, were nabbed at the Toll plaza and conveyed in a Black Maria while others escaped arrest.
“UPDATE: Our lawyers are at Adeniji Police Station, but are denied access. They are told they can’t see anyone arrested till the Area commander comes,” the lawyer claimed in a tweet.
Onayemi added: “We presently have 19 names on our list of persons detained from the arrests at #Lekkitollgate.”
