“Hyacinth told him he bought the shoe from the little money he saved. Inyama told him he doesn’t support Abia Warriors and there’s no way he can give him money.
“He asked him what part of Abia he’s from and the journalist told him Ngwa. His mood changed and he walked out the journalist from the interview session.
“Before he left he told Inyama not to cast aspersions on his people, then he (Inyama) became angry.
“Inyama stood up , pinned the journalist to the wall and started hitting his head on the wall.”
