Former US Secretary of State and ex-presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to stop the killing of #EndSARS protesters.
Photos and videos posted online showed soldiers had invaded the Lekki toll gate area of Lagos earlier on Tuesday, shooting at unarmed protesters.
The incident had generated an uproar, within and outside the country.
In a tweet on Tuesday night, Clinton lent her voice in support of those who had condemned the action of the soldiers.
“I’m calling on @mbuhari and the @hqnigerianarmy to stop killing young #EndSARS protesters,” Clinton tweeted.
There are reports that some of the protesters died in the incident but this platform cannot independently verify the authenticity of this claim. (Photo: Vanity Fair)
