Some Biafran protesters are currently demonstrating at the Pall Mall Street, Westminster as President Muhammadu Buhari prepares to meet Queen Elizabeth II, British Prime minister Theresa May and other heads of government.

Newsclickng.com reports that Westminster is 650 metres from Buckingham Palace venue of the meeting.

The protesters are, among other things, requesting the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Independent People of Biafra (IPOB) and a referendum on the fate of Biafra.

 

As the protest is ongoing, the president and other heads of states are currently being received by May, the British PM and Patricia Scotland, the secretary-general of the Commonwealth, at the official opening of the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM 2018)
