My Dearest Akanii | Meet Me Under the Mango Tree 😂💌 | Book Launch Spoken Word

A playful and romantic Nigerian spoken word dialogue performed live at the Two Poetry Collections, One Voice book launch. KJ performs “My Dearest Akanii” — a humorous response-style love letter inspired by the poetic universe of Vic’Adex. This performance blends schoolyard romance, Nigerian humour, and teenage love anxiety, where perfume is sprayed on paper before reading, goosebumps are mistaken for cold, and love is compared to exam registration urgency. It is a lighthearted exploration of how young people express affection awkwardly, sincerely, and beautifully. Love here is not rushed. It waits under the mango tree. 🎤 Performed by: KJ 📚 Event: Two Poetry Collections, One Voice Book Launch Tell us in the comments — would you reply this love letter? 😂 📲 Follow 60 Seconds Poetry: FB: @60SecondsPoetry IG: @60SecondsPoetry X: @60SecondsPoetry TikTok: @60SecondsPoetry #spokenword #nigerianpoetry #booklaunch #africanpoetry #60secondspoetry #loveletterpoetry
