Breaking news :Meghan Markle’s Surprising Decision as she quietly removed her first names from son Archie’s birth certificate……See More

People are debating whether the First Lady of Nigeria subtly criticized Meghan Markle for her clothing choices at an event celebrating President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s first year in office.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex recently spent three days in the West African nation to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games, the biennial sporting competition for wounded, injured, and sick veterans that Harry helped found alongside Sir Keith Mills.

In her speech, First Lady Senator Oluremi Tinubu emphasized the importance of preserving the country’s culture from a young age instead of idolizing foreign trends.

She said, “The message here is that we have to salvage our children. We see the way they dress. They keep forgetting that Nigeria, we are beautiful. You can see what they showcase on the stage. I said, ‘We are fashionable; we see what is going on.’

“We are not having the Met Gala. And everyone, the nakedness, is just everywhere, and the men are well-clothed. So we have to do something. Tell them we don’t accept nakedness in our culture. That is not beautiful. It’s not beautiful at all.

People are debating whether the First Lady of Nigeria subtly criticized Meghan Markle for her clothing choices at an event celebrating President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s first year in office.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex recently spent three days in the West African nation to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games, the biennial sporting competition for wounded, injured, and sick veterans that Harry helped found alongside Sir Keith Mills.

In her speech, First Lady Senator Oluremi Tinubu emphasized the importance of preserving the country’s culture from a young age instead of idolizing foreign trends.

She said, “The message here is that we have to salvage our children. We see the way they dress. They keep forgetting that Nigeria, we are beautiful. You can see what they showcase on the stage. I said, ‘We are fashionable; we see what is going on.’
“We are not having the Met Gala. And everyone, the nakedness, is just everywhere, and the men are well-clothed. So we have to do something. Tell them we don’t accept nakedness in our culture. That is not beautiful. It’s not beautiful at all.

And they’re all beautiful girls, but they should be confident in who they are.
“They do not want to mimic and try 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 us. We know who we are. Don’t lose who you are.”

Some people believed the mention of “nakedness” was a reference to Meghan Markle’s outfits in Nigeria, particularly a halter-style dress with a V-neck and a separate black-and-white dress with cut-out details below the chest and a front slit, both designed by Johanna Ortiz.

“Meghan Markle managed to create an international incident! We warned her about the clothes,” user @nancytsidley wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter), along with a clip from Senator Oluremi Tinubu’s speech.

“This one was a big NO-NO! I was worried that the one she wore for the school visit would do the same,” wrote another social media user over a photo of the halter-style dress.
