WASHINGTON: Donald Trump has said hat former Republican presidenti­al candidate Nikki Haley was not being considered to be his running mate in the November election, dismissing a report.

Haley, the former South Carolina governor, ended her challenge to Republican presidenti­al frontrunne­r Trump in March.

Trump is in no hurry to pick a running mate, his advisers say. He will not be formally nominated until the Republican convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in July. | Reuters

LAGOS: Prince Harry and his wife Meghan were yesterday treated to street-style dances in Nigeria’s commercial hub Lagos, where they unveiled a partnershi­p between their Archewell Foundation and non-profit Giants of Africa, which uses sport to empower young people.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are visiting Africa’s most populous nation for the first time after being invited by Nigeria’s chief of defence staff.

At Ilupeju Senior Grammar School on Lagos Mainland, the couple watched basketball practice and Harry stepped on the court for some ball-bouncing drills and to shoot a hoop. Archewell Foundation and Giants of Africa will construct a basketball court in Abuja.

Meghan said she had first heard of Giants of Africa while in Toronto, where she lived for seven years. Harry and Meghan were also to attend a reception for a local charity in Lagos.
