A video making the rounds on social media shows the moment peaceful protesters at Lekki-Toll Gate ran for their lives as an irate truck driver rammed into and crushed some cars of the protesters.
According to reports from some social media users, the truck had a PHCN logo on it and it led to many believing the attack was deliberate or sponsored by people who are against the peaceful protests.
