“We Are Hungry” – Moment Lagos Residents Voice Economic Concerns to President Tinubu During Convoy Trip

In a video that has since gone viral, residents of Lagos State were captured expressing their frustrations to President Bola Tinubu, who is currently on holiday in the state.

The incident unfolded as the president’s convoy passed through Idumota market in Lagos Island.

The video showcases a notable lack of enthusiasm from the crowd as the president’s convoy navigated through the populated market.

Instead of the expected cheers and waves, traders and bystanders could be heard expressing their grievances in Yoruba, with chants of “Ebi npa wa oo,” meaning “we are hungry.”

The residents, lining both sides of the road, took the opportunity to voice their concerns about the economic challenges they are facing.

The discontent was palpable as onlookers refused to shower the president with traditional cheers, opting instead to draw attention to their struggles and hardships.

As the convoy passed through the ever-busy market, people could be seen sharing their stories of economic woes.
