Prince Philip: Vanuatu tribes on Pacific island mourn for their god the Duke of Edinburgh

Yakel village on the Vanuatu island of Tanna for decades venerated Philip, who died at Windsor Castle last week at the age of 99.

Village chief Albi (pictured holding a photograph of Prince Philip, centre) said it was unclear how the religious movement would change following Philip’s death, as his spirit was believed to be adrift and seeking a new home.

While many outsiders assumed Philip’s eldest son Charles or grandsons William and Harry would succeed him in having a special place in the villagers’ hearts, Albi said nothing was certain.
