Lekki Toll Gate
An evening that the country has not, and will not, forget. The candles outnumber the stars.
TODAY
The Memory Endures
We honour the dead by building the country they were marching toward.
"They said we were children.
We replied: then teach us what it means to grow."
, A PROTESTER'S SIGN, LEKKI
A Nation That Heals, Continues.
This memorial is not a place of grief alone. It is a covenant , that the country we build will be worthy of those we lost, and braver because of those who marched.
