In a viral video shared on X on Friday, a crowd of animated individuals, some holding placards, chanted the Yoruba word for “thief” as Isa descended a staircase.

Towards the end of the video, a man acknowledged that the protest was embarrassing for her but stated that she still had to go.
In another clip, the protesters are heard chanting “Dubious” and “Isa, ole (thief)” as they protested.
