#EndSARS: TVC back on air — four days after mob attack

Television Continental (TVC) is back on air about four days after its headquarters in Lagos was attacked by hoodlums.

A mob had attacked the company’s head office at Ketu on Tuesday amid the unrests that trailed the #EndSARS protests.

Checks on the station on Saturday, however, showed it is still battling technical glitches.

The development is coming a day after The Nation newspaper, of which head office was also attacked by the hoodlums, resumed operation.

The recent attacks on private and government-owned properties in the state were triggered by the shooting of unarmed #EndSARS protesters at Lekki tollgate on Tuesday.

National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, is believed to be a target of the attacks.

The two media companies have been linked to the APC stalwart.

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, had denied any involvement in the incident, blaming it on “forces beyond his direct control.”

The #EndSARS protest started as a campaign against misconduct of the now-disbanded Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) and expanded focus to overall police reform.
