A Nigerian student has made history with his new innovation while still studying. He has just constructed a new aircraft, from scratch to finish, making him the first ever African to do so entirely.
The student of the Kogi State polytechnic Idah did the wonderful work of constructing an aircraft, from iron and other materials he sourced locally.
Well, he might actually not be the first to venture into such, but it is important to give him his flowers as it is not easy to have come up with such great idea of constructing an aircraft, and equally following it up as well.
Unfortunately, such great innovations are left to rotten away as a result of tangible support from the government and organizations. We have seen many young people in this part of the world done such great and rare innovative things, but only to abandon it along the line for lack of Adequate support, funding and encouragement.
