I look forward to President Buhari delivering a Valentines Day address that sounds something like this

Ayo Akinfe 

[1] Any Nigerian couple who marry from outside their geo-political zone will get a federal government marriage allowance of N50,000. This is to foster togetherness 

[2] All Nigerian girls aged 10 to 21 will be able to get sanitary towels free of charge from their local clinics 

[3] As from today, marriage to a minor under 18 will be considered statutory rape, even if no intercourse takes place 

[4] As from Feb 14 2022, the federal government will initiate a return to the 1958 Lancaster House Agreement under which the federating units controll all the resources within their domains 

[5] The federal government supports a bill before the National Assembly under which a first degree is the minimum academic requirement for anyone seeking elective office in Nigeria 

[6] Nigeria’s Federal Executive Council will be launching a national self-reliance campaign titled: “Anything we don’t produce, we don’t need.” 

[7] Today, I give you a solemn pledge that within the next two months, Boko Haram, Iswap, Fulani herdsmen and armed bandits will all be eliminated. They only still operate because they are being sheltered 

[8] Nigeria currently generates 7,000MW of power. I guarantee that this will hit 50,000MW by 2027 under our ambitious Mass Electrification Plan 

[9] Nigeria’s health minister is embarking on a tour to visit all the world’s large pharmaceutical companies. The aim is to make Nigeria the epicentre of tropical drug manufacturing and the world’s largest producer of Covid-19 vaccines 

[10] Nigeria’s trade and industry ministry will also visit every automobile manufacturer in the world in an attempt to woo them. Our goal is to make Nigeria the biggest producer of electric cars in the world by 2030
