Abayomi Omamuwasan, the managing director of the Lekki Concession Company (LCC), on Tuesday, says the Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) footage of the Lekki Toll Gate shooting that occurred on October 20, 2020, captured nothing concerning the shooting.

BIGPEN reports Omamuwasan stated this at the ongoing Lagos Judicial Panel of Inquiry as he released the CCTV footage alongside other documents important for the prosecution of the shooting incident.

Omamuwasan, who appeared alongside a counsel for the company, Rotimi Seriki, submitted a hard drive to the panel, saying it contained what happened at the toll gate.

Seriki, who tendered the footage to the panel, urged the panel to use its discretion on when to make the content of the hard drive public.

He, however, disclosed that the cameras stopped recording around 8:pm before the panel admitted the footage and marked it as ‘Exhibit A’.

“The surveillance camera didn’t capture the shooting. It stopped recording around 8pm,” Omamuwasan told the panel.

According to him, a fire outbreak at the Ikoyi Bridge affected the CCTV cameras and it stopped recording.
He also said the company had three surveillance cameras located at Sandfill, Ikoyi Bridge and one at Chevron.
Explaining the reason for the power outage, he insisted that the company complied with the curfew and asked staff to leave in adherence with the directive of the state government.
He added that the company withdrew its staff from the toll gate following the takeover of the toll gate by the protesters.
