Festus Keyamo driver killed during #ENDSARS protest in Abuja

State Minister of Labor and Employment Festus Keyamo said his personal driver was killed during the #ENDSARS protest in Abuja yesterday.

In a statement posted on Twitter, Nigeria’s senior lawyer wrote that a driver identified as Johanna Shankkuk was heading to the office when he was hit by a driver who was trying to hide from protesters.

He wrote:

I regret to inform you that my driver, Mr. Johanna Shankuk, died yesterday in Abuja after the protests. The car, which saw the protesters moving at Berger’s roundabout, turned around, turned back and hit him as he walked towards my personal office.

Yesterday it was reported that a thug, brandishing various weapons, attacked peaceful #EndSARS demonstrators in the Berger district of Abuja yesterday.

Many cars were damaged and protesters were injured.
