Soldiers Not Instructed To Shoot At Protesters: Muhammad Maigari Dingyadi

Nigerian Police Minister, Muhammad Maigari Dingyadi, said that soldiers were not instructed to shoot at protesters.

in an interview, Mr Mr Dingyadi said  “Soldiers have already spoken about this, they are denying their involvement and government is aware that they have not given any soldiers instructions to go into this crisis, not at all,”

recall that Amnesty International also clam that at least 12 people were killed by soldiers and police in Lagos on Tuesday. which Nigeria’s army has dismissed the reports as “fake news”.

The minister promise that government is working on all the demands for reforms demanded by protesters.

We all know how this thing started, it started peacefully with genuine demands but suddenly this thing has turned to something completely different. You cannot call a situation where properties, houses, buildings were burnt down – you cannot call it peaceful, some people must have taken over this protests.
