The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Harry and Meghan, continue to receive a warm welcome in Nigeria as they engage in different activities, honoring an invitation from the country's chief of defense staff, Christopher Musa.
Nigeria was the first African Country to participate in the Invictus Games.
Their first engagement was at the Lightway Academy to kick off a two-day mental health summit run by the GEANCO Foundation, an organization dedicated to supporting teens and young women with their menstrual health.

The couple engaged the students by discussing mental health and the importance of being one's brother's keeper.
"We're so honored to be with you. We have got to acknowledge those amazing dance moves! My husband was excited to jump up!" Meghan told cheering students in the school's hall.
"Will you promise to us that after today, no more being scared, no more being unsure of mental health. If you are unsure, then ask. Ask your teachers. Ask your friends. Be there for one another," Prince Harry said.
"If you see your friend in your class not smiling, what are you gonna do? You gonna check in with them? Are you gonna ask him if they're okay? 'cause it's okay not to be okay." He added.
During their visit to Kaduna state, Governor Uba Sani and other government officials warmly welcomed the royals. Harry was gifted a stylish traditional Hausa attire that left him looking dashing and feeling at home.
The prince was also presented with two portraits, one with his mother, Prince Diana, and one with his wife, Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex.
Prince Harry will join wounded veterans during a sitting volleyball game today. The Duchess of Sussex is expected to co-host a women's leadership event with Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the director-general of the World Trade Organization.
The couple will conclude their tour on Sunday by enjoying some sport at a basketball clinic with Giants of Africa, then a reception, and later a polo fundraiser for Nigeria.
