Nigerian Developed Mathematical Instruments To Help WAEC,NECO Etc. by Cosbyrich: 2:17pm On Feb 24, 2016
Without contradictions, Nigeria is adjudged as the
giant of Africa considering her vast demography
and massive population. Despite these known
endowments, the country does not have a globally
recognized product to its name.

However, turning the tide for good, Mr. Babatope
Agbeyo, CEO of Cornfield Transnational Limited, a
parent company to Media Concept International
and Botosoft Technologies recorded a major
milestone through the development of intellectual
patented property known as KAPTEK set of
mathematical instruments with an in-built
scientific calculator.
KAPTEK set of mathematical instruments with an
in-built scientific calculator
The made-in-Nigeria product is certified to be of
high quality that meets international standard with
a patent number: WO 2015063586 A1 as published
by google.
The calculator is a non- programmable computer
having in excess of 400 functions and is
manufactured with examination and/or learning
situations in mind. Such a computer, particularly
one for use in examination conditions, will be
silent with no audio or noisy keys, cordless in the
sennse of not being dependent on a mains power
supply, and including dry nonprogrammable
batteries. The computer will preferably have no
facility for a magnetic card input ‘or plug-in
modules of program instruction. The product
seamlessly has the capacity to help examination
bodies like WAEC, NECO, JAMB etc, to curb
malpractices.
Moreover, the instrument case includes no
calculator secured to or built into its lid. In this
embodiment, the entire upper surface of the
instrument case is transparent. The side walls and
base of the instrument case is transparent. One
main advantage of instrument cases in accordance
with the invention is that they assist invigilators in
preventing examinees from carrying into an
examination unauthorised items which could
provide unacceptable assistance to the examinee
to answer examination questions. The transparent
lid of such an instrument case will either
discourage items being brought into an
examination or make such items more apparent to
invigilators.

Besides, the transparent lid also has the advantage
of enabling a student to recognise if an important
item is missing from his or her instrument case. It
is envisaged that instrument cases in accordance
with the present invention containing only
instruments relevant to the examination to be
undertaken will be handed to examinees as they
enter an examination venue, no other instruments
not permitted can be brought to the respective
examination by the examinees.
This invention emphatically relates to a closable
instrument case for retaining inter alia a calculator
and various drawing and other mathematical
instruments used particularly by students and
more especially for use by students or candidates
in examination conditions.
It would be recalled that the West African
Examination Council had once emphasized that it
will inaugurate West African Senior School
Certificate Examinations, “branded, non-
programmable calculators and mathematical sets”
for all its examinations. The initiative, the Council
said, was to stop the increasing use of
“programmable calculators” by candidates during
examinations. However, Mr. Agbeyo’s innovation
has the potential to help WAEC and other
examination bodies and even Universities that
conduct post UME tests to achieve their
impervious or foolproof set objectives.
