Chika spoke at the virtual Igbo symposium under the guiding theme of Disruptions: Breaks & Ruptures, which held from 17th-19th June 2020. Over the three days a range of speakers discussed significant moments of change for Igbo people, brought about by disruptive forces (both positive and negative). Conversations engaged with key historical events and changes in cultural practices, notions of identity and ways of seeing the world.
