Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, has revealed her genetic origins, revealing that she is 43% Nigerian.

Markle stated this in the most recent edition of her podcast, Archetypes, in which she indicated a desire to discover more about her ancestors, Mirrors reported on Tuesday.

Markle spoke with American actress Issa Rae, Nigerian-American writer Ziwe Fumudoh, and academic Emily Bernards on the episode.

After then, the Duchess of Sussex said that she completed a genealogy test, which proved that she is 43% Nigerian.

She said, “I just had my genealogy done a couple of years ago.”

When her guests asked her to share what the results entailed, the Duchess said, “I’m 43% Nigerian,” to the shock of Ziwe, who responded, “No way!”.

Ziwe further asked, “Are you serious? This is huge. Igbo, Yoruba, do we know?”

The Duchess of Sussex then answered, “I’m going to start to dig deeper into all of this because anyone that I’ve told, especially Nigerian women, are just like, what?”

The podcast revelation was the first time Meghan opened up about her ancestral background on the public stage.

Shatta Wale is back in the news, and this time he has a message for his detractors who are ridiculing him for ripping off Burna Boy on his new tune.

Shatta Wale released a new track named 'Cash Out' on Friday, October 20th, 2022.

The mid-tempo song is composed and delivered in the style of Burna Boy. The resemblance has sparked criticism and scorn among Ghanaian fans, who believe Shatta Wale is attempting to steal a hit by imitating the Grammy-winning megastar.

Shatta Wale has responded to the criticism, claiming that fans who don't know music are the ones making incorrect remarks about him imitating Burna Boy on 'Cash Out.'

"Your brother drops song and it's doing well. Instead of supporting the song, Ghanaians are busy saying he copied Burna Boy. It's a shame...Let me tell you something if you don't know music just shut up. Everybody sings and everybody does music," Shatta Wale said in the post.

Shatta Wale is not the first Ghanaian singer to be chastised by fans for imitating Nigerian artists and sounds. Camidoh, a Ghanaian musician, claimed in an interview with Pulse Nigeria that only confused fans will blame him for sounding like a Nigerian because his music isn't just for Ghanaians.
