But appearing on TalkTV, Royal commentator Kinsey Schofield revealed not everyone was keen on the plans. “Every time Meghan Markle opens her mouth she wants to remind us that she’s a feminist,” Schofield said.

“Aside from the poverty that Nigeria’s dealing with, there are severe cases of violence against women and girls which I think is a very big concern.” Schofield also said Meghan should be focusing on other priorities.

“A basketball court? Meghan Markle, you’re supposed to be this feminist and the queen of the world,” she continued. “They’re just total virtue signal… all they do is virtue signal. When are they going to actually… what is a basketball court going to do?”

Fans were left divided over the claims. One said: “The two most selfish people they haven’t gone to Africa to help make the country better place for women and children.they are there to make themselves look good and try to promote themselves.”

Defending the couple, another added: “It’s strange how Harry and Meghan getting on with their lives can cause such jealousy and bitterness,” while another supporter questioned critics: “What has this royal expert done for Nigeria? ” they fired off.

Meghan recently revealed she’s 43% Nigerian. At a summit, sharing the spotlight with Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the big boss of the World Trade Organisation, she said: “I am just flattered and honoured and inspired. It has been a whirlwind 24 hours since we arrived, and I very quickly got the memo that I need to wear more colour, so I can fit in with all of you and your incredible fashion! “.

“I am very overwhelmed. So I want to start by saying thank you very much for just how gracious you’ve all been in welcoming my husband and I to this country.”
