Prince Harry Shuts Down Divorce Rumors and Criticizes Media’s Negative Impact
Prince Harry has dismissed rumors of marital struggles with Meghan Markle, joking about fabricated stories during a discussion at the New York Times’ DealBook Summit.
“Apparently, we’ve moved house 10 or 12 times and divorced just as many. It’s hard to keep up,” Harry said, laughing. He sympathized with social media trolls, saying, “Their hopes build up, and then nothing happens. I genuinely feel sorry for them.”
He also criticized Britain’s media and legal system, reflecting on the dangers of misinformation and the negative attention he has faced since childhood. “I’ve seen stories about myself, my family, and even strangers that aren’t based on reality,” he said.
Addressing why he and Meghan often undertake independent events, Harry dismissed public fixation on their relationship, emphasizing their commitment to their shared and individual work.
Harry reiterated that the couple has no plans to return to the U.K. with their children, Archie and Lilibet, citing ongoing security concerns.
TV anchor Rufai Oseni makes headlines as he speaks on fuel subsidy in Nigeria. He shared that Nigeria can have fuel subsidy without the long queues at filling stations.
“When we were still paying subsidies, there were no long queues. We were subsidising. So you can still have a subsidy regime going on, and there will be no long queues because production was close by. Dangote had it. That’s just it. That argument also falls flat.
“The biggest beneficiaries of subsidy are not Nigerians. They are crony capitalists that have big infrastructure, and they do contracts. They have been the biggest beneficiaries of the subsidy,” he said.
Lagos State Governor, Sanwo-Olu, speaks to those in the electricity sector about the usual blackouts in the state.
He speaks on ways things can change in the state and how electricity can be provided.
“We need to drop corporate egos, abandon long-standing excuses, and confront the harsh realities obstructing progress in the power sector.”
“We, state governments, used to give excuses that everything is centralised, so the Federal Government has unbundled it now. What have we done in a year and a half?” Sanwo-Olu asked.
“We take two steps forward, we go five steps backward,” he said.
Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has declared Thursday, August 20, a work-free day for public servants in the state to mark the Isese Festival.
Speaking on the celebration, he said “Ìṣẹ̀ṣe is not a relic. It is a living expression of our traditions and a celebration of Yoruba spirituality as an important part of Nigeria’s cultural and religious landscape,” he said.
He added “When the drums sound in Lagos on Thursday, they answer drums in Havana, in Salvador, in Port of Spain. Fifty-five million people and counting. Lagos is not observing a local holiday. Lagos is standing at the centre of a global heritage,” Aregbe said.
