The King and Queen have arrived, waiting for the President and First Lady.
The 41 gun salutes have started.
The two 2002 Bentley State Limousines brought the guests. Prince William and President Tinubu were in one car and Princess Catherine and Mrs Tinubu were in the other.
The Household Calvary rendered the royal salute (Nigeria We Hail Thee).
The carriage is here. The procession is about to start.
The general officer commanding the Household Division had to help the President and the King down the stairs.
The members of the Nigerian delegation are being shown their carriages.
They are using closed carriages (Gowon, Shagari and Babangida used open top carriages).
The foot guards are waiting in the courtyard of Windsor Castle.
As always happens, Nigerians have organised and gone to line the route.
🤣 I remember that thread in which some Nairalanders were complaining because they played the Star Spangled Banner before Arise O Compatriots. They said it was a disgrace.
The anthem of the guest is always played before the anthem of the host.
The guards are playing Nigeria We Hail Thee before God Save The King.
I posted a video of a sniper on the roof of a building along the route of the royal procession, but the bot banned me.
