Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the esteemed Duke and Duchess of Sussex, are set to grace Nigerian shores on Friday, May 10th, marking the beginning of an eagerly anticipated private visit. Their arrival follows a gracious invitation extended by none other than the esteemed Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa.
During their stay, the royal couple intends to engage intimately with the noble wounded soldiers and their families, demonstrating unwavering support and solidarity.
