A
17-year-old secondary school student, Ismaila Suraju, has built a
planting machine and a locally-made power generator that uses water and
batteries, among others.The boy doesn't plan to prevent, he says his
next goal is to build an aeroplane. Ismaila also claims to truly have a
know-how to create a gadget that may frustrate election riggers in
Nigeria.
When the student was younger, he had to produce
a pair of slippers out of a cardboard to protect his feet from the
scorching soil of the farm path.The necessity of protecting his face
from sunlight also made him create a baseball cap, then cars, train,
grinding machines, all with the exact same cardboard.
