During a grand state banquet at Windsor Castle on March 18, King Charles hosted President Bola Tinubu and First Lady Oluremi Tinubu—the first such Nigerian visit in 37 years—with 160 guests including celebrities like Tiwa Savage and a meat-free Ramadan menu. In his speech, he greeted in Yoruba, praised Nigeria's youth and diaspora, acknowledged colonial history, and ended with the Pidgin toast meaning 'Nigeria doesn't come last,' which delighted audiences online. While UK critics noted the omission of violence against Christians, Nigerian voices celebrated the cultural nod amid strengthened UK-Nigeria trade and security ties.
The moment King Charles III said NAIJA NO DEY CARRY LAST. 🔥🔥🇳🇬🇳🇬
