At a lighthearted moment during a state banquet at Windsor Castle, King Charles III drew laughter after joking about Nigeria’s famous jollof rice, declaring with a smile, “Naija no dey carry last.”
Charles III made the remark while hosting President Bola Tinubu and other dignitaries, as he praised Nigeria’s rich culture and vibrant global influence.
Referencing the ever-spirited “jollof wars” among West African countries, King Charles playfully sided with Nigeria, earning applause from guests and adding a relaxed tone to the otherwise formal evening.
The comment quickly became a talking point among attendees, reflecting the growing cultural connection between Nigeria and the United Kingdom beyond diplomacy and trade.
