Silicon Valley, California – In a surprise twist in the world of tech billionaires and relationship goals, Elon Musk, CEO of just about everything, has announced his commitment to marry a Nigerian girl. The eccentric billionaire, who’s known for his love of electric cars, space travel, and X (formerly Twitter), took to social media to share his unexpected mission, declaring, “I’m searching for my future African queen. Nigeria, let’s make this happen!”
The statement was initially met with disbelief, but a tweet by Musk in fluent Pidgin — “Abeg, who go hook me up?” — confirmed he meant business. Sources within SpaceX and Tesla hinted that Musk has been taking “intensive courses” on Nigerian culture, focusing on pidgin phrases, Afrobeats, and a crash course in jollof rice diplomacy.
“If Davido and Wizkid Can Do It, So Can I!”
Reports suggest Musk was inspired by Nigeria’s ‘Detty December’ and the rising global influence of Afrobeat superstars like Davido and Wizkid. “If Davido can fill a stadium, why can’t I find true love there?” Musk tweeted, sparking a flood of applications.
In response, a flurry of Nigerian mothers across WhatsApp and Facebook have started subtly dropping hints to their daughters, even creating a new group chat titled, “How To Secure Elon.”
Criteria for “African Queen” Leaks
Musk has reportedly set up a task force to handle applications, and a rumored list of “Elon-Worthy” criteria has emerged:
- Loves Tech: Applicants should have a deep interest in cryptocurrency and the future of AI. Being able to explain NFTs without anyone falling asleep is a plus.
- Swag and Sass: Musk’s team has confirmed he’s looking for “a woman who can hold her own,” especially after being warned that Nigerian women “don’t take nonsense.”
- Fluent in Meme Language: As Musk is famous for his Twitter activity, the ideal candidate should possess “an excellent sense of humor” and be prepared to laugh at all Musk’s tweets.
Reactions Pour In
The news has sparked reactions across social media. Nigerian men quickly took to Twitter to issue warnings about “the wahala Musk is getting himself into.” One user tweeted, “Oga Elon, Nigerian women no be joke oh! Dem go drag you if you misbehave.” Another responded, “Wait till he finds out about bride price!”
Upcoming Visit to Lagos?
Sources say Musk is planning a “love tour” through Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt. His itinerary reportedly includes sipping palm wine in a local village and attending a wedding in Aso Ebi. In an attempt to fast-track his immersion, he’s even considering co-hosting Big Brother Naija.
As Elon continues his hunt, only one thing is clear: the entire continent is watching. Nigerian parents are polishing their Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa proverbs, preparing for any future in-law negotiations with Elon’s representatives.
In the meantime, Musk’s tweet “Naija, where my wifey at?” has already become an iconic meme.
