Nigeria authorities initially denied anyone died when soldiers fired shots at protesters at Lekki last Tuesday.
The military broke its silence on the crisis one day after Sanwo-Olu told CNN that footage of the shooting showed that the Nigerian Army is responsible for the incident.
The Nigerian Army said on Tuesday that the Lagos state government invited it to intervene in the fallout of the #EndSARS protest.
Youth protesting against police brutality had refused to stay off the roads despite a 24-hour curfew imposed by Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governor of Lagos, after widespread violence.
Subsequently, men in military uniform invaded the protest ground at Lekki toll plaza and opened fire on the protesters.
The incident sparked an outrage and Sanwo-Olu blamed the incident on “forces beyond my direct control”.
