In a recent broadcast, the show concluded with an engaging conversation with Royal commentator Kinsey Scofield from Los Angeles. The topic was the controversial pretend royal tour of Nigeria by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, which has ignited significant criticism and debate.
Harry and Meghan’s visit to Nigeria has been widely criticized, given the country’s severe social issues, including rampant female genital mutilation, child abductions for sex slavery, and a general lack of women’s rights. Despite these pressing issues, Meghan’s presence in Nigeria seemed to ignore these harsh realities, creating a misleading portrayal of the country.
During the tour, Harry met a local figure, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi, whom he referred to as an “in-law” within the royal network. However, it was revealed that this man is a notorious con artist, deported twice from the United States and previously jailed for attempting to cash a stolen check for £247,000. This incident highlights the lack of proper vetting, which is a staple of official royal tours, thus bringing into question the wisdom of Harry and Meghan conducting their own tours.
Kinsey Scofield pointed out the dangers of unvetted engagements, especially for a couple seeking fame and fortune. Harry’s casual reference to strangers as his “in-laws” was described as cringeworthy and insincere, particularly considering his actual in-laws are close by and estranged.
Further tarnishing their tour, another individual who welcomed Harry and Meghan in Nigeria is a fugitive wanted for over $20 million in money laundering. These associations have cast a shadow over their activities and raised concerns about their judgment and the influence they wield.
Moreover, questions have arisen regarding Harry’s visa status in the U.S., especially in light of his admissions of drug use in his memoir, Spare. If he did not disclose this on his visa application, it could pose serious legal issues. Former President Donald Trump has indicated he would not protect Harry if he returns to office, potentially leading to Harry facing consequences for any discrepancies.
As Harry and Meghan remain in the public eye, their involvement in political matters and their personal conduct continue to attract scrutiny. The couple’s upcoming engagement with the U.S. election could be influenced by assurances from the Biden Administration about Harry’s safety in the country.
In summary, Harry and Meghan’s Nigerian tour has exposed significant missteps and questionable associations, underscoring the risks of their independent royal endeavors.
