Other activities lined up for visit according to the director of sports, defence headquarters, AVM Abidemi Marquis, include a novelty volleyball match to be competed by the CDS’ Invictus team and the Duke’s team today.

According to the itinerary, the Duke is expected to hold strategic meetings as well a visit to Lagos on Sunday before departing the country.

The Duke and the CDS declined speaking with newsmen before leaving for Kaduna.

The Duke of Sussex told children at a mental health summit in Abuja “there’s no shame to acknowledge that today is a bad day, that you left school feeling stressed”, according to the BBC.

The visit comes after Harry concluded a brief visit to London, where he told the BBC it had been “great” to be back in the UK.

The couple landed in Abuja yesterday morning, and began their visit with a tour of Lightway Academy, a primary and secondary school in the capital city.

They were greeted by traditional dancers and met some of the primary schoolchildren.

One group of year five pupils told the BBC they were really excited about the visit, saying they hope it would raise their school’s profile.

During their tour the couple visited a kindergarten class where children aged up to five danced and sang – at one point, the visitors got to their feet and joined the class in singing Jump Up, Turn Around.

The couple mentioned their own family: Archie, who turned five earlier this month, and two-year-old Lilibet.

Meghan said that dancing was Lilibet’s favourite class, adding: “Maybe it’s all the jumping around.”
