 The Human Rights Watch has lamented the failure of the federal government to hold accountable security operative who brutalized and killed Ansar's protesters in October of 2020. The International Human Rights Group said the victims are still awaiting justice a year after security forces violently suppressed protests calling for an end to police brutality. Scores of young Nigerians were arrested and also killed during the nationwide protests. They attack on the protesters' climax on October 20, 2020, when troops fired live shots at the youth at the leaky toll gate. Many states consequently set up panels, but the reports have not been implemented while the Lagos panel is yet to submit its report.
