See how Americans encourage their own.if na naija them for Don dey use abuse discourage them saying useless boys,jobless boys,go find work do.but for america we go still dey ride horse or donkeys

Buhari invented many things too
e.g, wives belong to the other room, Nigerian youths are lazy, etc

AutoJoshNG:
.

I believe the Montgolfiers brothers were the first to invent a plane.

I watched the documentary on discovery channel about ten years ago

Awesome

In Nigeria u must pass jamb and have first class before you are being made to believe that you can do something like this

KendrickAyomide:
They will forever be remembered. but bini people are the real inventors

Lol. You won't kill person with laugh

Trash Trash Trash

Good invention wonderful brothers!



Something that our African people have been flying probably before then. It's just that it is designed and programmed to only fly in the night, plus cause havoc to people.

I have a dream that one day i'll improve on this mens work.
Thank you,without u my vision to be an airspace Engr may not have possible.

Their society cultivate and nurtured their ideas. Someone cannot say that about ours.

This is one of the very few news on Nairaland that is making sense-educative and historical. This is the kind of news we want

If this was done by Nigerian or black with even less resource than what was available to these brothers, we will mock it for not being polished.

chrisxxx:
1903 and we are still trying to build one here in Nigeria.

You mean pencil at bolded

moscobabs:
Benin people have been flying on air before then.

jbreezy:

Euouae:

AND Around That ,Time, Somewhere In Africa Someone Was Trying To Assemble A zoo. With 250 Animals With Three legs. Now Over Hundred Years Later The Zoo Has Not Stood And Yet The Plane Are Still Flying

ruffhandu:
Nigeria has been inventing new ways to steal from one another.

Even if you have any good idea, a financier will ask "where is he from?".
Even a good spirited financier comes forward and makes a proposal, the inventor will say "he wants to come and reap off my idea".

Some other people are by the corner wishing the inventor failure. Others who have more balls will go to [I]oganigwe[/I] to collect [I]small thing[/I] that will make him fail.
Last last, one Chinese will peep in and see the invention. The next month, an Igbo man will import it into the country, with improved features than the original inventor conceived.
Let us continue.

yes o,let us break it down. while you are trying to invent something, Yoruba man would be like,olori buru-ku ,it will never work o. the ibo man would quickly take the sample to China and comes back with modified version and would leave you wondering if you are sure you invented it. Hausa man would be busy trying to take charge of the profits

Skepticus:

And to think their Pastor Dad asked them never to attempt such, saying it's impossible.
The brothers showed the power of belief and possibilities.
ALL IS POSSIBLE

Well, never blame their dad, he was not a Physicists.Yourself will never believe in some impossibilities

myettiallah:
and dey did all these with only 3 years of high scholl education...GENIUS

BIAFRA DID MORE THAN THIS

IMASTEX:

You mean pencil at bolded

Bros u bad. hahahhahahahaha

Come to Edo state u will see the person that invented air force one (1)

They are actually bicycle repair men.We cant really call them aeronautical engineers because such did not exist before their aeroplane.Their airplane was what opened the vista of aeronautical engineering.That doesnt mean for ages people havent dreamt of flying.

Donald3d:

You people should sha not give use nightmares with this your picture

My Edo ppipu

I hail

Bini people, is it true

i think the african witches association(AWC) deserves more accolades than these guys!

CSTR1003:
Made in America

#Americanoxygen

that song by rihanna has been an eye opener to me..an inspiration to be the best at what I do..

"we sweat for a nickel and a dime,turn it into an empire"...

I can't forget those lines.. it's the patriotism and positivism that made Americans who they are. we CAN do it spirit. Africa still has a long way to go..

So you mean they were already aviation Engineers before they invented the first airplane?
Very interesting

Skepticus:


And to think their Pastor Dad asked them never to attempt such, saying it's impossible.

You lied! Definitely you don't know their story. The aircraft was first the Creativity of their Dad. The children innovate it.

GoodMuyis:

Their Dad was the first person that predicted that one day, men would begin to fly like birds. He was the first to dream the dream.
