Lagos Island residents and traders at the bustling Idumota market voiced their dissatisfaction with President Bola Tinubu, shouting "Ebi npa wa oo" in Yoruba, translating to "We are hungry" as the president's convoy navigated through the market's bustling lanes.
In a video shared on social media, traders lining both sides of the road refrained from cheering the president's convoy but made their grievances known.
