Quote from: PrincessOfPeace on Today at 07:35:02 AMDaily Mail: Meghan Markle thanks Nigerians for welcoming her to 'my country': Duchess of Sussex, who says she's '43% Nigerian' tells audience in Abuja she hopes she can 'do justice' to being a 'role model' as she attends event without Harry

"My country" is an odd choice of words imo.
