The 2020 Endsars protest saw thousands of Nigerian youths storm the street to protest against police brutality and extrajudicial killings. The protests across major Nigerian cities began on 4 October 2020 after a viral video showing Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) dragging two men from a hotel and shooting one of them outside. Days into the protest the SARS unit was disbanded. The then Nigerian Police chief, Mohammed Adamu announced the disbandment of SARS on October 11 following the mass protests across the country. During the protest two correctional facilities in Edo State South-South were attacked by the hoodlums freeing inmates. Some public and private properties were also vandalized, while business premises were looted. The protest turned bloody on the night of October 20 when gunmen opened fire on protesters -draped in Nigeria’s flag and singing the national anthem- at the Lekki toll gate, Lagos killing and injuring some of them.
