Prince Harry and Meghan Markle To Visit Nigeria for 'Cultural Activities'

Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, are expected to visit Nigeria.

According to a Daily Mail article, the couple will be coming to take part in the country's "cultural activities".

The tour will take place just days after the Duke of Sussex visits the United Kingdom to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.

The non-working royals will reportedly tour Nigeria in an unofficial capacity, having accepted an offer from the country's Chief of Defence Staff, Christopher Gwabin Musa, while in Germany in September.

They will meet service troops and their families and take part in 'traditional cultural activities'. 

Harry and Meghan's acceptance of the offer, on their first visit to Nigeria as a couple, is claimed to have left the country's defense headquarters feeling 'honored' and 'delighted'.

Meghan stated in 2022 that she discovered she is 43 percent Nigerian after taking a genealogy test 'a couple of years ago.

On her podcast Archetypes, she told Nigerian-American comedian Ziwe Fumudoh, 'I'm going to start digging more into all this because everyone that I've told, especially Nigerian ladies, are like, 'What!'' 

The visit will take place just days after Harry travels to Britain for the Invictus Games' tenth anniversary.
