Prince Charles, Wife Arrive Nigeria Tomorrow

The Prince of Wales, Prince Charles and wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, Princess Camilla will arrive Nigeria Tuesday, November 6, on a visit expected to last till Thursday, 8th November 2018.

Confirming the visit, the British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Mr Paul Arkwright told the News Agency of Nigeria in Abuja on Sunday that Prince Charles would engage in peace-building activities, including addressing the farmers-herders clashes.

“The Prince of Wales will be looking at the causes, talking to people who are working in this area and together, seeing if we can find solutions and move on.”

He further said “Prince Charles has not been here since the past 12 years. 2006 was the last time he was here and the Duchess of Cornwall has never been to Nigeria. So it is about strengthening ties, particularly people-to-people ties.

“We want to ensure that through the Commonwealth, which is another theme of the prince’s visit, we develop links to develop relationships whether in trade, environment or in education, all of which are important to the future of the Commonwealth and to the future of Nigeria.”

Prince Charles and his delegation have been on a nine-day Royal tour to Commonwealth countries including Gambia and Ghana.
