Authorities of the Nigeria Police Force have revealed that no fewer than 22 police personnel were killed and many others injured during the #EndSARS protests across the country.
Many others were inflicted with life-threatening injuries while 205 police stations and formations were burnt, Force Public Relations Officer, DCP Frank Mba, said on Friday.
In a statement, Mr. Mba said other critical private and public infrastructures were also damaged by hoodlums who hijacked the protests.
The Police said despite these unprovoked attacks, their officers never resorted to use of unlawful force or shooting at the protesters.
However, the police debunked a report by Amnesty International that protesters were shot at, saying they acted professionally, exercised commendable restraints and some paid the supreme price during the protests.
