A mild drama played out on Friday as
residents of Lagos Island and traders
of the popular Idumota market expressed dissatisfaction with
President Bola Tinubu, shouting in
Yoruba,”Ebi npa wa oo” meaning-we
are hungry.
The traders who filed on both sides of
the road as the convoy of the
president passed through the ever-
busy market, refused to hail him but
instead kept talking of their pains
believed to have been caused by the
government.
Underneath the complaining voices in
the video, residents were heard saying
the presidency had known the plans of
the people which was the reason for
the heavy security. However, the
alleged initial plan was not made
known.
The President is in Lagos to celebrate
both Christmas and New Year.
According to reports, Nigerians are
currently celebrating the Yuletide
under a series of economic challenges
ranging from the shortage of cash to
the skyrocketing price of the premium
motor spirit commonly called petrol.
