A royal commentator is furious about Prince Harry’s inspection of Nigerian troops, branding the move “insulting”.
This comes after Meghan and Harry wrapped up a tour of Nigeria last week.
The couple travelled to Nigeria for three days after being invited by the country’s highest-ranking military official, Christopher Musa.
The Sussexes championed their Archewell Foundation’s mental health initiatives for young people and promoted the Invictus Games which Nigeria joined for the first time last year.

Speaking to GBN America, Daily Mail columnist Maureen Callahan discussed the tour and criticised the Prince for his inspection of the troops, even though he was stripped of his title by the late Queen.
She said: “It is so laughable and further diminishes Harry in the eyes of the royals and the world.

“He is standing at attention as though he still holds his military honours and titles. As if he wasn’t stripped of them when he left.
“As if William had not been given the honour last week by Charles that was due to go to Harry. He’s standing there at attention in plain clothes, reviewing Nigerian troops.
“I mean, it’s it’s laughable. It’s an insult to the Nigerian people.
“These two are of course, playing as though they’re still royals when they’ve spent the past four to five years telling us how terrible it was to be Royals.”

Harry served two tours of Afghanistan and previously held several military titles, including commodore-in-chief of small ships and diving, honorary air commandant of RAF Honington, and captain-general of the Royal Marines.
The titles were given to him by the late Queen Elizabeth II and then removed when he stepped down as a working royal.
Harry was strongly criticised for revealing his kill count in his book Spare.
GBN America host Nana Akua said: “Harry knows you don’t reveal your kill count.
“And he did that in Spare. And a lot of the people who he worked alongside were not happy about that.
“So it’s like he betrayed the people who protected him whilst he was there.
“He does the Invictus, but even that ended up being all about something else and not about the games.”
