The sitting of the Lagos State Panel of Judicial Inquiry probing the alleged shooting of #EndSARS protesters at the Lekki tollgate on the night of October 20 has been frustrated on Saturday due to the absence of a youth member of the panel, Oluwarinu Oduala.
Oduala, who is one of the prominent voices of the #EndSARS demonstration, boycotted the Saturday sitting in protest against the freezing of her bank account by the Central Bank of Nigeria.
Recall that the CBN obtained a court order freezing the accounts of 20 #EndSARS promoters till January 2021.
The order was pursuant to a motion ex parte filed by the CBN before a Federal High Court.
The chairman of the judicial panel, retired Justice Doris Okuwobi, said the panel would have to suspend Saturday sitting as it cannot form a quorum in the absence of the youth member of the panel.
