The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project, SERAP, has threatened to take legal actions against President Muhammadu Buhari’s government.

In a series of tweets, SERAP said it is suing Buhari to compel the arrest of soldiers and police officers involved in shooting EndSARS protesters at Lekki tollgate.

“Please indicate your interest to join the suit by stating your names.

SERAP tweeted, “BREAKING: We’re suing the Buhari administration to compel it to immediately arrest the soldiers and police responsible for the shooting of #EndSARS protesters at Lekki-Toll Gate and pay reparations to victims.

“We’re filing the suit first thing tomorrow morning; so please indicate your interest.

“We’re also following up with our petition dated 21 October 2020 to the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court by forwarding today a copy of the report of Lagos #EndSARS Panel as additional information and evidence,” the group added.
