Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, have arrived in Nigeria on a three-day trip to promote the Invictus Games.

Meghan and Harry touched down in the west African country after the duke spent much of the week in London.

On the agenda is a visit to a school before the duke meets injured service members at a military hospital.

The couple will also attend a training session for charity organisation Nigeria: Unconquered – which collaborates with the Invictus Games – as well as a reception where military families will be honoured.

However, Harry did not meet with the King or Prince William while in the UK due to his father’s “full programme”, the duke’s spokesman said in a statement.
