The First Lady of Nigeria has appeared to have made a veiled jab at over her clothing choices during the three day jaunt in the West African country. Senator Oluremi Tinubumade raised eyebrows during a speech at Celebrating the Woman, and event to mark President Bola Tinubu’s first anniversary in office. In her speech, which recognised how women have contributed to all areas of life, Tinubu reinforced Nigerian cultural values and how they differ from ones — including what is considered appropriate clothing and modesty.
Tinubu said: “We are not having a Met Gala. The nakedness is just everywhere, and the men are well-clothed. So we have to do something.
Tell them we don't accept nakedness in our culture. That is not beautiful. It's not beautiful at all.
” "They should be confident in who they are. They do not need to mimic and emulate film stars from America. They don't know where they come from.
Why did Meghan come here looking for Africa? We know who we are. Don't lose who you are." And in her attack on Hollywood’s beauty ideals, it appears the First Lady has made a swipe at Meghan Markle, who referred to Nigeria as “my country” on the recent ‘royal’ tour, after DNA-test results revealled she was 43% Nigerian.
She also signed the guestbook at the Nigerian Defence Headquarters, thanking officials for “welcoming me home”. Even more unfortunately for the Duchess, The Express she dropped around £120,000 on outfits for the trip, which have evidently bothered.
