Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's milestone trip to Nigeria in photos

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex touched down in Lagos on Sunday for the final stop of their action-packed tour. 

The day culminated in a fierce battle between Harry and Meghan at the Lagos Polo Club, with the Duchess of Sussex's team emerging victorious. The game ended 5-3 to the Duchess’s team, much to her delight!

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex visited the prestigious Lagos Polo Club for a special reception in aid of Nigeria Unconquered, where keen polo player Harry appeared perfectly at home.

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu and Nigeria Chief of Defense Staff Christopher Musa later welcomed Harry and Meghan to the city on Sunday after the couple arrived at the State Governor House.

The couple were in great spirits and received such a warm welcome during their three-day trip to Nigeria, which ends on Sunday.

It was an action-packed day for the Sussexes, who had earlier headed to a basketball court at Ilupeju Senior Grammar School for a special game. Harry and Meghan were welcomed by ex-NBA star Masai Ujiri, Chairman and President of non-profit organisation Giants of Africa, which travels the continent to run children's basketball camps, building courts, and facilitate outreach initiatives.  

Saturday evening saw Meghan co-host an event of Women in Leadership with Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Director General of the World Trade Organization. The event aimed to highlight the importance of female leadership and empowerment in driving positive change globally.

Meghan wore a gorgeous red maxi dress by Orire, a young and upcoming contemporary female designer from Nigeria, which bills itself as "ethically designed".  

During the panel Meghan made the sweetest comment about her children, admitting that she "being a mum has always been a dream of mine".

"And I'm so fortunate that we have two beautiful, healthy, very chatty, sweet children," she joked.

On Saturday afternoon, Harry and Meghan attended a special lunch with the country's chief of defence staff, General Christopher Musa, at the Nigerian Defence Headquarters in Abuja.

The couple could have passed as newlyweds as they coordinated in all-white outfits, with Meghan looking ethereal in a strapless gown.

The couple were guests of honour at the Sit Out event, seated at chairs that had "Duke" and "Duchess" labels printed on the backs. 

They were presented with gifts and also treated to lively performances, which they appeared to thoroughly enjoy as they faced a stage decked out with red, white, and blue balloons.

Earlier that morning, Harry and Meghan attended an event linked to the Invictus Games – a training session for organisation Nigeria: Unconquered in Asokoro, Abuja – where the couple were invited to watch a sitting volleyball game.

Nigeria: Unconquered is a charity that, like Invictus, uses sport to encourage recovery and rehabilitation in wounded, sick, and injured service personnel to "help them find new purpose".

Harry rocked up in his signature Invictus Game polo shirt and navy trousers, while Meghan looked flawless in a Johanna Ortiz dress.

After about 15 minutes of spectating, Harry took part in the sitting volleyball match and was cheered on by shouts of "Team Harry".

Meghan clapped animatedly for her husband and also got chatting to one little girl, nine-year-old Tiwa Akanbi.

Tiwa later said of her meeting with the Duchess: "She said Prince Harry loves to play volleyball and that he's very good at it. And she asked me if I play volleyball in my school. And I said yes."

Meghan was presented with a bouquet of red roses from a little girl Royalty Ojeh, six, the daughter of the executive director of Nigeria: Unconquered.

The Duchess removed one of the roses from the posy and handed it back to Royalty, who said of the royal: "She was nice."

Prince Harry and Meghan kicked off their tour with a visit to a kindergarten class at Lightway Academy in Abuja, where children aged up to five danced and sang. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were all smiles as they received a warm welcome, with the couple taking time to chat with students and receiving beaded necklaces as gifts.

They were the centre of attention when they took part in some games.

During the visit here, the couple were mobbed by students, with Meghan happily stopping to take selfies with some students.

Prince Harry and Meghan offered little snippets into their own family: Archie, who turned five earlier this month, and two-year-old Lilibet. The former actress revealed that dancing was their daughter's favourite class, adding: "Maybe it’s all the jumping around."
