During a programme on Wednesday afternoon, some field reporters were reporting live when one of the reporters’ video started shaking as if disturbed before he was taken off air.

The attack at the station is coming just few minutes after broadcasting Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s denial of the massacre in Lekki on Tuesday night.

Witnesses at the scene and a livestream on Instagram exposed how about nine people were killed after soldiers opened fire on #EndSARS protesters as they were singing the national anthem.

Sulaiman Aledeh, a former staff of Channels TV, tweeted his concern for the safety of the members of staff after the station went off.
