LAGOS: Prince Harry and his wife Meghan wrapped up their three-day visit to Nigeria on Sunday, arriving in the country´s economic capital Lagos during a trip to promote his Invictus Games for wounded military veterans.
The Duke of Sussex arrived with his wife on Friday in Nigeria´s capital Abuja where they visited a school event on mental health, in a trip that also saw the prince meet wounded Nigerian soldiers in the country´s northwest. On day three of the visit, Prince Harry and Meghan took part in a basketball event with the Giants of Africa Foundation in Lagos, an organisation helping youth through engagement in the sport.
The prince practised dribbling basketballs with children at the foundation’s exhibition event, which is run by Masai Ujiri, the vice president of an NBA team.
“The power of sports can change lives, it brings people together and creates community and there are no barriers which is the most important thing,” the prince said.
Harry, a former army captain who flew helicopters in Afghanistan, founded the Invictus Games 10 years ago to help wounded veterans recover by bringing them to sporting events.
The couple also met with Lagos State governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu. “He has seen a lot and is still soaking in a whole lot,” the governor said of the prince´s experience of Nigeria.
