How does Nigeria generate $20bn annually from the coronavirus pandemic in 2021?

Ayo Akinfe

(1) We insist the likes of Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline open manufacturing plants in Nigeria. If they do not, we will ban flights to Europe and the US

(2) We open up a tourist convalescence centre in Lagos, similar to the cancer recovery centres in Mexico

(3) We distribute any vaccine all across Africa and bill the World Health Organisation for it

(4) We get Innoson Motors to manufacture hand-held personal ventilators

(5) We also get Innoson to mass-produce hand-held test kits

(6) We get the United Nigerian Textiles Mills to start manufacturing vaccine-treated facemasks. Basically, it vaccinates you once you put it on

(7) We manufacture special anti-Covid motorcycle and cycling helmets

(8) We get our private sector manufacturers to make special builders hard hats with built-in face shields

(9) Immediate research begins into which tropical plant is the best ingredient for any vaccine. We then mass produce it

(10) We ask Innoson Motors to look at manufacturing an air conditioning system that sprays a vaccination

Now is the time to think outside the box!
