Never mind faux-王室の, Meghan's 小旅行する of Nigeria was 前向きに/確かに 大統領の! Inside the Duchess's ますます stateswoman-like visit with hisband Harry to the place she now calls 'my country'

Never mind faux-王室の, the final 脚 of Harry and Meghan's 小旅行する of Nigeria seemed decidedly 大統領の.

From the moment they touched 負かす/撃墜する in Lagos, the Duke and Duchess were 影をつくる/尾行するd White House-fashion by secret servicemen muttering into earpieces, 武装した police officers and scowling special 軍隊s 兵士s.

Not to について言及する their own, much smaller 安全 team ? and a smattering of anxious-looking 女性(の) 補佐官s in 転換 dresses and Adidas trainers who 追跡するd the Duchess.

Or should that be First Lady? For as this 小旅行する has 広げるd ? and the enthusiasm for the couple grown ? so Meghan has become ますます stateswoman-like.

Her attire, too, has 発展させるd. Having 選ぶd for 中立の shades 早期に on, the Duchess then 'very quickly got the 覚え書き that I need to wear more colour'. She didn't disappoint Lagos. There were three wardrobe changes, the high point 存在 a 素晴らしい canary yellow ankle-length dress.

Even の中で the multi-coloured finery on 陳列する,発揮する during a hotel lunch with 目だつ Nigerians, some of them African 王族, the dress 配達するd a powerful message.

Not that we saw much of it when she hurriedly left 手渡す-in-手渡す with her husband. 'Stop taking pictures,' hissed a Nigerian 安全 公式の/役人 to th e Mail's photographer. 'If you carry on we will be 軍隊d to 掴む your camera ? and 調査/捜査する you.'

The 小旅行する began on Friday in the 資本/首都 Abuja which, while hardly Stratford-upon-Avon, was beginning to feel genteel in comparison to nervy, 罪,犯罪-riddled Lagos.

'Go, go, go,' 叫び声をあげるd an 補佐官 to a driver as AK47-こどもing 兵士s positioned across the street were roused from listless 無関心/冷淡.

It was the signal for the Sussexes to move off and, in a flash, the yellow dress was lost somewhere in a スピード違反, snaking motorcade. We counted 16 黒人/ボイコットd-out 乗り物s, but there may 井戸/弁護士席 have been more.

All day long the cavalcade criss-crossed the city, the couple's Lexus 4x4 disgorging them into the sweltering heat at one event after another.

Before leaving for Lagos, for a day of what were おもに 法案d as cultural events, the Duchess had 設立する time to その上の burnish her African 信任状. Lest there be any 疑問, she considers Nigeria her 'home'.

Enlightened by a デオキシリボ核酸 実験(する) which, she says, 明示するd that she is 43 per cent Nigerian, she told children at a school on Friday: 'I see myself in all of you'.

At another event a few hours later, she thanked 軍の 長,指導者s for 'welcoming me home'.?

Then, during a パネル盤 discussion before 50 of Nigeria's most 著名な women, she spoke more expansively on the 支配する.

Later, as she stepped off the 計画(する) at Lagos, she was wearing, along with a white Carolina Herrera button-負かす/撃墜する shirt, a skirt fashioned from 伝統的な handwoven Nigerian Aso Oke fabric gifted to her during the Sussexes' stay in Abuja.

'It brings people together and creates community and there are no 障壁s, which is the most important thing. It's wonderful to see each and every one of you here today, sitting on this 法廷,裁判所.'

There was excitement at the 約束 of more 冒険的な endeavour later. Harry and Meghan were to …に出席する a charity polo match. Would Harry 攻撃する,衝突する the field? But he was 単に a 観客. Probably the best call, given the sport's elitist image and the fact that 87 million Nigerians live below the poverty line.
