EarthXmetahuman:It looks very high-schoolish. An Electric engineer should be able to produce something presentable and thorough that just requires scale up from investors. That thing in his hand looks like Rudimentary physics. |

obailala: I rushed to see the picture of the "200MW" hydro-Electric Power Plant, but was disapointed. However i must say kudos to the man using his brain to solve the problem of power in his immediate environment. |

ExAngel007:200MW? Or you mean 200watt or even 20watt? |

Yemmyteespeed007: I tell you.. that is the dichotomy in solar energy/battery inverter which alot of us without knowledge of power generating systems may not appreciate.. |

will this young man be encouraged and supported financially....time will tell....it's over to npower, see the right person to empower here o....ok Minster of power, a Mr. fashola see 200 mega watt...free for you to add to the national grid....God bless your talent my brother... 1 Like |

Great job! That being said, its not an extra ordinary feat to achieve for most science students. It's actually a simple process. But I guess the discouragement comes from vandalism, lack of funding for research and development and the unprogressive laws guiding the generation and transmission of electricity in Nigeria. Due to the bad topography of most East Asian and South East Asian countries like Japan, south Korea and now Philippines, small scale hydroelectric plants are built by villagers which serve their various communities without interruption from the government. 3 Likes |

Well this our Nigerian man tried sha but if you check out what this Tanzanian man (http://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-africa-42419283/tanzanian-innovator-builds-hydropower-plant-for-village?SThisFB) did you will realize that our Nigerian guy is just a learner! His name is John. He is a school drop-out! In the video, he was only speaking in the local Swahili dialect (I think he couldn't speak English). The local people in his village call him "Pwagu" meaning "a day dreamer!) The daydreamer has built them a 28KWatt Hydro-power station supplying over 250 households! 1 Like |

Hmm. Nigerians have millions of potentials that are begging for a chance and oportunity but unfortunately enabling enviroment is not there. Our leaders who should've play a cruicial role are either blind or myopic in sight and reasoning. Promising, educated and talented youths are out there jobless while Nigeria government is busy appointing dead people. May God help us and punish those that are appointing ghost workers. Amin. |

This guy deserves praise alright but those with high school physics may not be so impressed. One can also use a blowing fan in the desert high enough to catch enough air. My only problem is everyone with little projects asking government for money. Even if we do not have looters, there is not enough money for every little project. My humble advice is to start with villagers that can benefit from these projects. If it actually works, your neighbors would contribute money to get a piece of the action. From there, you can improve and if you do not have what it takes, once you start making money from neighbors, small tiny investor would join. This is how little projects turn big. Those doubting the project are not mischievous, they just have better knowledge of physics. 1 Like |

200MW about 200,000W it's not possible with the kind of armature he used. The whole of Nigeria how many MW of electricity do we produce? He's good and has a point though. 1 Like |

ExAngel007: When African governments stop fooling themselves about phantom development and they want real development, that's how it looks like. Development means we're able to conceive solution to all our problem by ourselves. Development will occur when this type of scientific knowledge is open source knowledge that any African child would be privy to, and not only those who could speak English. Only science can solve the poverty problem of a nation. |

cstr1001: As a fellow comrade in arms, I am disappointed in your comment. A journey of a thousand mile, begins with a step. If more of this is built across Cross River State streams & rivers, it will help local businesses that requires little power to grow. Seriously I am not happy with this comment of yours. Haba, Nnamdi Kanu Will be disappointed in you. |

elvisscientist: You are product of FUTO and truly you did not disappoint. The worst mistake you can make is to stop developing new technologies. Take this technology developed by this guy very seriously because free power can further increase your wealth. Just look for a flowing water around you that you can dam and reduce the outlet point so that the water will flow out at a higher speed/pressure. Keep it up but keep researching into new technologies. 2 Likes |
