Duchess Megan Calls Nigeria 'My Country' During Visit With Harry

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, are in Nigeria at the invitation of the country's Chief of Defense Staff. Their private visit focuses on promoting the Invictus Games, an international sporting event for wounded veterans. They will visit military rehabilitation centers, and sports facilities, and engage with local organizations supporting veterans. 

This trip holds special significance as Nigeria recently participated in the Invictus Games for the first time. Meghan's recent discovery of her Nigerian ancestry strengthens the connection between the Duchess and the Nigerian people.
