Meghan Markle Comment by Nigeria First Lady Sparks Debate


 Meghan Markle's visit to Nigeria was referenced in a speech by the country's first lady, which was used to both attack and defend the Duchess of Sussex on social media.


Meghan and Prince Harry spent several days in the West African nation meeting school children and celebrating her husband's Invictus Games tournament.


Over the weekend, footage emerged of first lady Oluremi Tinubu discussing the fashions of some young Nigerian women, stating: "We don't accept nakedness in our culture."


She said: "They are all beautiful girls but they should be confident to know they are. They don't want to be like...even they are mimicking and trying to emulate film stars from America.


"They don't know where they come from. Why did Meghan come here looking for Africa? That is something we have to take home with. We know who we are and don't lose who you are."
