Harry and Meghan then presented prizes to young participants.

They also took part in a basketball event with the Giants of Africa Foundation, helping youth through engagement in the sport.

Harry was on a three-day tour of the African nation to promote his Invictus Games for wounded veterans.

He arrived with his wife in the capital Abuja on Friday, when they attended a school event highlighting mental health.

The prince also met wounded Nigerian soldiers in the north-west of the country.

Meanwhile, ex-MP Rory Stewart’s Politics On The Edge pipped memoirs by the Duke of Sussex and Britney Spears to win the British Book Awards non-fiction category.

Former MP Stewart won the non fiction: narrative book of the year prize for his tell-all insider account of UK Parliament, defeating Prince Harry’s Spare and Spears’s The Woman In Me.
