#EndSARS: Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has suspended his Senior Special Assistant on Print Media, Mr Wale Ajetunmobi, over misrepresentation of facts
Ajetunmobi took to X days ago to claim that some arsonists who torched the Television Continental (TVC) head office in Lagos during the #EndSARS protest in 2020 were “hunted and executed.” Recall that there were allegations of extrajudicial killings during the protest.
The Lagos State Judicial Panel on #EndSARS and police brutality had indicted Sanwo-Olu in the brutal intervention of the Nigerian Army at Lekki Toll Gate on October 20.
However, the state government rejected the report indicting Sanwo-Olu and the Nigerian Army. Four years after the incident, Ajetunmobi said on X that the majority of the arsonists who burnt TVC head office have been “hunted and executed.”

Sanwo-Olu has now announced the suspension of Ajetunmobi as his media aide for “misinterpreting fact.”
