Channels TV has gone offline, shortly after thugs were seen taking over the station.

The station came under attack minutes after broadcasting Governor Sanwo-Olu’s denial of the massacre in Lekki on Tuesday night.

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

The development came shortly after TVC went offline after being set on fire by thugs angry over killing of #EndSARS protesting in Lagos.
