Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu has constituted a four-member committee tasked with coming up with a white paper on the report of the #EndSARS panel submitted to him yesterday.
The committee which he ordered to come up with recommendations within the next two weeks, is headed by Moyosore Onigbanjo, the Attorney-General of the state.
While inaugurating the committee, Sanwo-Olu said, “I’m believing and trusting that this process will help us start the very difficult process of proper reconciliation, restitution, bringing together of anyone that must have been one form or the other being affected,” he said.
“By either the police or any of our citizens that must have been wronged by one form or the other, the process of healing, I imagine, with the submission of this panel report, will start that process.”
The Lagos judicial panel on police brutality submitted its report Monday at the government house, Ikeja, Lagos.
The panel submitted two sets of reports — a consolidated report on police brutality cases and the Lekki incident investigation.
Chairperson of the panel, Ms Doris Okuwobi, said 186 of the 252 petitions submitted were deliberated upon.
According to an infographic released by the panel, the sum of N409.7 million was awarded to 70 petitioners.
