Meghan Markle talks her struggles of being a Royalty + Harry wants to spend the rest of his life in Africa

Meghan Markle has said that she is 'existing, not living' while struggling with the pressures of royal life and media scrutiny.

The Duchess opened up during an emotional interview with broadcaster Tom Bradby for a new documentary which aired on ITV Sunday.

A new video from the documentary has emerged today which shows Harry discussing potentially leaving the UK one day to live in Africa.

Harry & Meghan: An African Journey will offer an insight into the emotional journey the 'vulnerable and bruised' royal couple have been catapulted into since their wedding while following their ten-day tour of southern Africa.


In the hour-long documentary, Harry voices his desire to leave the UK and considers living in Africa one day.

He said: 'I don't know where we could live in Africa at the moment.

'We've just come from Cape Town, that would be an amazing place for us to be able to to base ourselves, of course it would.

'But with all the problems that are going on there I just don't see how we would be able to really make as much difference as we'd want to.'

Harry also revealed Africa will be the main focus of his and Meghan's work in the future.

He said: 'The rest of our lives, especially our life's work will be predominantly focused on Africa, on conservation.

'There are 19 commonwealth countries across this continent, there's a lot of things to be done, there's a lot of problems here but there's also huge potential for solutions.'

In an article for the Sunday Times, Mr Bradby recalled asking Meghan whether she was able to cope with the endless media scrutiny the newlywed has been under. 

She said, 'We are taking it one day at a time,' before admitting that the couple are currently 'existing, not living.'

The Duchess received an outpouring of support from Twitter users on Friday after a clip from tonight's documentary was released in which she admitted she was 'not really OK'.

When Meghan was asked about the impact the intense public scrutiny has had on her 'physical and mental health' and how Harry is being 'protective' of her after what happened to his mother, she replied: 'Look, any woman especially when they are pregnant you're really vulnerable and so that was made really challenging, and then when you have a new born – you know…

'And especially as a woman, it's a lot.

'So you add this on top of just trying to be a new mom or trying to be a newlywed it's, well…'

She continues: 'Also thank you for asking, because not many people have asked if I'm OK. But it's a very real thing to be going through behind the scenes.'

Tom asks her: 'And the answer is, would it be fair to say, not really OK, as in it's really been a struggle?' Meghan, visibly upset, then replies: 'Yes.'

The couple will be taking six weeks off from their royal duties over the Christmas period.

20 dead in DR Congo bus accident

Twenty people were killed early Sunday when a packed bus came off the road on a highway west of the DR Congo capital Kinshasa and burst into flames, a local official said.

“The provisional toll is 20 dead,” Didier Nsimba, deputy administrator of Mbanza-Ngungu territory told AFP.

The bus, laden with people and goods, was travelling from Lufu to Kinshasa when the brakes failed, he said.

An injured passenger who gave her name as Nacha said more than 100 people had been in the vehicle at the time, and many bodies were burned beyond recognition.


Mbanza-Ngungu is located about 150 kilometres (90 miles) west of Kinshasa on Highway 1, a road with a notorious reputation for deadly accidents.

Prisoners In American Earn Higher Than Workers In Nigeria

Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, yesterday shocked the nation, when he hinted that the least daily upkeep of a prisoner in America was higher than the proposed N30,000 minimum wage.

He also pointed out that the least daily upkeep spent on a prisoner in America is N31,000 in Naira equivalent, which is also higher as compared to N730 budgeted for similar purpose in Nigeria.

The minister, who bemoaned the pathetic state of Nigerian economy and Nigerians, further noted that daily upkeep spent on a prison inmate in America was as high as N60,000 per day in some states.

Aregbesola made the startling revelation at a budget defence session of his Ministry with members of the Senate and House of Representatives joint Committee on Interior.

According to him, the Nigerian economy is small compared to that of America, which makes daily upkeep on a prisoner there, not only far higher than what is projected for similar purposes in Nigeria but also higher than the N30,000 minimum wage.

“Comparing Nigeria with countries like America, Turkey and even Egypt as illustrated by some of the federal lawmakers will completely demoralised the morale of any concerned citizen but what we are sure of in the Ministry, is that we shall with the limited resources available make the best for the country.”

Pretty Woman Jailed for Getting Pregnant for 11yrs Old Boy

A former nanny has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for having a baby for an 11-year-old boy she s*xually abused in Florida, United States of America.

Tampa Bay Times reports that Marissa Mowry, 28, was sentenced on Wednesday, five years after she slept with the boy repeatedly over several months before giving birth to his son in October 2014.

Mowry, who continued having s*x with the boy until he told his mother three years later, must also serve 10 years of probation and register as a s*xual predator.

The victim told his mom about the s*xual abuse in 2017, leading her to contact police. A DNA test later confirmed the boy was the father of Mowry’s child.

Mowry was hired by the family in early 2014. The boy’s mother, Nadene Campbell, said the nanny’s actions irrevocably altered her son’s life.

Campbell’s son now cares for the 5-year-old himself, his mother said, taking the toddler to school before starting his own day of classes. But being a father has limited his social and dating life, Campbell said.

“Who wants to date a 17-year-old who had a 5-year-old?” she asked. “It has not ruined his life, but it’s changed his life. But he has turned into one of the most amazing dads you’ll ever meet. We don’t think about females being predators, usually. And I didn’t — and it cost me,” she added.

Panic as lion escapes from Kano Zoo last night

There was panic on Saturday night around Zoo road in Kano metropolis when a lion escaped from its cage at the Kano Zoological garden.

News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reported that the incident happened around 9 p.m. when the rangers were trying to put it back to its cage after they returned it from the national agricultural show which took place in Nasarawa state.

A source at the zoological garden told NAN that effort was being made to capture the animal which was still within the zoo premises.


Malam Rabiu Lawal, a resident of Zoo Road, said he had locked up his house until announcement was made of the capture of the lion.

”My entire family members will be indoors even if it will take one month to recover the lion. I have not experienced this kind of fear since I packed into this area more than 15 years,” he said.

Residents of the area were said to have gone indoors earlier than usual to avoid the consequences of an encounter with the loose lion.

Armed policemen have been deployed to the area while a search team was trying to capture the lion.

I've lost count on women i have slept with - Pretty Mike

Socialite and club owner, Mike Nwogu, aka Pretty Mike says he has lost count on the number of women he has slept with.

According to him, he had been with several women that the presence of naked females no longer moved him. He told Sunday Scoop, “I always tell people that once one is sexually active, one wouldn’t be able to count how many people one has had sex with. I got deflowered when I was just 13 years old. I have been having sex for a long time, so for you to think I would be able to tell you how many people I have had sex with or even give a close figure, is almost impossible. I started having sex in the US and it was a thing of fun for us to be deflowered by older people; it was a trend.”


Nwogu, who recently featured in an advert with stylist and entrepreneur, Toyin Lawani, maintained that although they were both nude, he never got aroused. He said, “Toyin is my very good friend and I consider her family. I never got aroused by her but that doesn’t mean she isn’t pretty and sexy. People that talk about these things forget that I have a partnership in a strip club; so I see naked women all the time. I have got to a point where I could be with over 20 naked women in a room without feeling anything. Sex doesn’t just come that way.”

The power dresser also stated that he was waiting for God to guide his wife to him. He added, “People see me as a playboy and sometimes, I intentionally portray that picture for them because that is the kind of thing that sells. People are not interested in serious issues and being in my line of business, I have to keep dishing out things for people to talk about. Sometimes, I claim to be in a relationship and other times, I say otherwise. Presently, I am not in any relationship. I am looking up to God to guide my own wife towards my way.”

Nigeria may break up, says Yoruba leader, Akintoye

Yoruba leader, Prof Banji Akintoye on Saturday likened Nigerian nation to a country under the reign of an empire, which must crumble and break up.

Akintoye said like other artificially created empires across the globe that have become history, Nigeria is a time bomb, which might soon explode unless equity, justice and fair play reign supreme in the land.

Akintoye spoke in Ibadan on Saturday during a programme on Fresh 105.9 FM monitored by Punch. 

He said, “Some foreign powers came and created an empire and gathered a number of nationalities together and gave them a single government. Nigeria is an empire comprising many nationalities. In the history of the world, every empire breaks up and the nationalities remain.


“It is not about Nigeria alone. It is a fundamental universal world experience that empires combine many nationalities and rule over them and then the empire breaks up. So, it is to be expected that a country like Nigeria will some day break up,” he said.

Akintoye, who has taught History in universities in Nigeria and the United States and became a senator in the Second Republic, however, gave conditions that could forestall the breakup of the country.

He called on the Hausa/Fulani to give up the attitude that they own Nigeria and must continue to rule it.

“From modern perspective of governance and interrelationships, we can do things that can make Nigeria survive for a long time. Number one, we must get the people who believe that they have the right to conquer and subdue the rest of Nigeria.

“We must ask them to give up, repudiate and stop all of that disaster. They must return to civil relationship among other people of Nigeria. If they continue to act like they own the country, they will only speed up the breaking up of the country.  They say Nigeria is theirs, that Allah has given it to them.

“There is no way Nigeria can continue as long as this type of agenda and ambition exists among us. The first thing is to demand of our Fulani brethren that they must repudiate the agenda,” he said.

Seven Dead In Fatal Crash Involving Gov Obaseki's Convoy

At least seven persons, including five adults and two children, were on Saturday morning killed in a ghastly auto accident involving the advance team of Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State.

The accident happened on the busy Benin-Auchi Expressway. Several other persons including one of the Governor’s driver were also injured in the accident.

Eyewitness account said the accident occurred at Ehorin Uhunmwode area, when a Toyota Hilux van on the Governor’s advance team had a head-on collision with a passenger Audi car.

The advance team were said to be on their way to Ambrose Ali University, AAU, at Ekpoma for the convocation of the university.

Three other survivors were said to have been rushed to the Central Hospital in Benin City for medical attention.

It was learnt that a good Samaritan rushed the survivors and the dead to the First SAVAN Centre at the hospital. At the Central Hospital, a source confirmed that accident victims were brought in but declined to give details.

As of the time of filing this report, arrangements were on to evacuate the driver of the Hilux van to a private hospital for adequate medical care.

The State Commissioner of Police, Danmallam Mohammed, who confirmed the incident, described it as “very unfortunate.”

Super Star C. Ronaldo Makes More Money On Instagram Than Playing Football

Fresh reports and data have confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo apparently earns more from Instagram, a photo-sharing social media platform, than he does from playing soccer for Juventus.

The 34-year-old pockets an annual $47.8 million from paid Instagram posts, according to a study by social media firm Hopper HQ on Buzz Bingo. In contrast, his salary at Juventus is reportedly $34 million, according to Goal.

Ronaldo's reported income from Instagram makes him the platform's highest earner, ahead of Lionel Messi and Kylie Jenner.

Receiving a reported average of $975,000 per advertised post, Ronaldo's Instagram earnings far eclipse the world's biggest celebrities, including Kylie Jenner, Selena Gomez, and Emily Ratajkowski. He also beats footballing rival Lionel Messi, who is said to have earned less than half of Ronaldo's total with $23.3 million.

Amongst the very top brands Ronaldo has represented on Instagram are Clear Haircare, Nike Football, and Six Pad Europe.

"Ronaldo is the most followed human on Instagram (with 186 million followers) so companies are paying almost $1 million for posts to access his insane reach.

Due to his status as a celebrity and football star, his earnings from Instagram break away from typical influencer partnerships, as many of his promotional posts will be part of wider sponsorship deals."

Ghana Set To Ban Made-in-Nigeria Products Following Border Closure By Buhari

As Nigeria’s land border closure bites West African countries, the Ghana Trade Union has called for a total boycott of all Nigerian products imported by Ghana from Nigeria.

The move, the traders union believes, will force the Nigerian government to open up its land borders for foreign goods. Nigeria partially shut its borders since August.

Greater Accra Regional Secretary of GUTA, David Kwadwo Amoateng on Adom FM’sshow, Dwaso Nsem, on Friday said the Nigerian government has not been fair to foreign traders.

In return, he expects the Ghana government to prevent Nigerian traders from bringing goods into Ghana, but that plea has fallen on deaf ears. “Either somebody’s bread has been buttered or we are cowards. Government is not being fair to us,” he fumed.

Mr Amoateng cited how Dangote cement from Nigeria had taken over the market in Ghana while the local ones from GHACEM are suffering.

“Let’s boycott Nigerian products as payback to their government’s action. How can we be slaves in our own country?” he said.

Mr Amoateng argued that the issue, if not checked, could hamper the Continental Free Trade Area.

Ghana’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration has appealed to Ghanaian traders to remain calm as it works with the Nigerian authorities to ease its ban on the exportation of Non-traditional products.

Jury recommends death sentence for ‘Hollywood Ripper’

A jury in California recommended the death sentence on Friday for a man dubbed the “Hollywood Ripper” who was earlier found guilty in the gruesome killings of two women at their homes.

Michael Gargiulo, 43, was convicted in August on two counts of first-degree murder and one count of attempted murder by a Los Angeles jury.

A judge is set to sentence Gargiulo, also described as the “boy next door killer,” on February 28.

Among his victims was 22-year-old Ashley Ellerin, who was found in her Hollywood home with 47 stab wounds in February 2001. On the night of her murder, Ellerin had been due to go on a date with actor Ashton Kutcher, who testified at the trial.


The second murder victim was Maria Bruno, a 32-year-old mother of four and neighbor of Gargiulo who was attacked in her sleep in December 2005 and “quite literally butchered,” prosecutors said.A jury in California recommended the death sentence on Friday for a man dubbed the “Hollywood Ripper” who was earlier found guilty in the gruesome killings of two women at their homes.
