Nigeria
The royal couple arrived in Nigeria for the final leg of their tour on Tuesday, November 6, and are expected to leave on Thursday, November 8.
Notable among their engagements included meeting some well-respected Nigerian traditional rulers at the British High Commissioner’s residence in Abuja as well as meeting some notable stakeholders in the various fields.
Take a look at some photos below:

Another funny moment was when Prince Charles spoke in Pidgin language much to the delight of the audience while delivering a speech. Take a look at the video below:
He did however thrill the audience by using the popular pidgin language during a speech in Abuja, saying: “Naija no dey carry last.” (Nigeria always wins!) @ClarenceHouse #RoyalVisitNigeria pic.twitter.com/0ag3CUqoWr

He also shared his views about the Ghana-Nigeria jollof rice war. He had to be very diplomatic with that!
