Okorocha was invited by Chatham House, to speak on his free education programme from primary to University level and other human capital development initiatives by his government.

Sun News reports that as the Governor got up to speak, an IPOB member stood up and started talking about the group’s agenda.

Reports say the government officials with the Imo Governor made an effort to stop him from disrupting the meeting.

While they were trying to stop the young man from disrupting the Governor’s speech, another young man mounted the podium with the Biafran flag.
