The visit was part of the Crown Princess’s ongoing visit to Lagos, aimed at deepening her experience of the state’s rich cultural heritage and vibrant hospitality sector.

The John Randle Centre, a flagship cultural and historical facility in Lagos, provided an opportunity for Her Royal Highness to explore the depth and diversity of Yoruba traditions, arts, and history.

Earlier, the Crown Princess had paid a courtesy visit to the Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, at the Lagos House, Marina, where she was received with honour and appreciation for her interest in Lagos and its cultural landscape.

The Lagos State Government, through the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture, continues to promote cultural diplomacy and international engagement by showcasing the state’s unique heritage to global dignitaries and fostering strong bilateral relationships.
