A Nigerian motorcyclist who took on the task to invent a sound proof generator that does not make use of fuel is finally done after 13 years.
The young man, who is a computer science graduate has invented a noiseless generator that does not require fuel to function
The okada rider known as Oyekunle Michael, from Oyo state, is a computer science graduate from Interlink Polytechnic.
Michael shared his spectacular invention on Twitter, where he showcased the eco-friendly fuelless generator and the appliances it powered.
It took him 13 years to build because of the unavailability of sponsors to finance production of the generator in large quantities he shared.
The young inventor was not relentless despite 15 failed attempts before its completion in 2022. He spent about 250k excluding failed experiments.

In the video, Michael demonstrated how to use the 900 watts capacity generator and powered some bulbs and an electric fan.
“I can build from 1kva up to 20kva to power a whole building and offices, with help and support.” He said.
Michael’s inspiration to build the generator came after the difficulties he faced when he lived with his uncle’s house following his parents separation. There was barely any power supply, and fuel was sold at a far distance.
Some netizens found the fear incredible, while others praised him for his work.
@VictorCyriI: “He said H20,I’m not trying to critique him but scientifically it sounds absurd sha but if it’s true then it’s awesome.”
@_iamFatai: “So what does it use…Abi e just Dey bring light from air??”
Empress__chizzy: “Raw talent before you know it,some set of lutabandrus will just come and be claiming I want to help him forgetting the main issues we have at hand with their fake promises just for their selfish interestsMay God not bring promise and fail people near us Amen.”
Nigerian child begins coding at 6 years, creates websites and award winning inventions
Meanwhile, Joshua Agboola, a child tech genius has made a mark in the tech world through inventing many websites.
From a young age of 6, his love for coding was noticed by his very supportive parents who ensured that his desires were fulfilled.
Following his enrollment at Co-Creation Hub one year later, the child star developed a website for his school from scratch at the age of 9.
