And what will the foreigners be thinking when they read some of the comments here? |

Invented? No. Pioneered in Enugu. Yes. How could he be deemed an inventor when the wind turbine is already making waves and is considered part of the "all of the above" solutions to energy security in the US? Well if you don't blow your trumpet, nobody will blow it for you. |

Another good reason why we should leave that useless entity Nigeria. We are just too advanced to be lumped with these brainless goons. 1 Like |

udezue: Another good reason why we should leave that useless entity Nigeria. We are just too advanced to be lumped with these brainless goons. A beegi! A university graduate just did what a school kid taught himself to do in Malawi several years ago and it's time to leave Nigeria? Mr brainiac, why don't you just leave Africa entirely. |

Must you people claim every invention wey den don invent since? This low self esteem think is getting out of hand. When are you going to invent water? lmao |
Re: Igbo Ingenuity: Enugu To Support Inventor Of Wind Turbine For Power Generation by londoner: 4:05am On Apr 02, 2012 |
Obviously, the word "invented" was incorrect in the title of the piece. We all know that and this young man from Enugu, I am sure does not claim he invented it. Is that any reason to rubbish his efforts? Maybe if all Nigerian youths took a practical step like he has, even if they don't get to claim all the glory for invention, we would see improvements.Improvements that dont depend on the government......that is empowering isn't it? I find it funny that even though the Malawian buy also DID NOT invent a wind turbine........his people saw it as commendable and newsworthy and whats more Nigerians here do not rubbish his efforts. The problem with many Nigerians is that they are so quick to rubbish what their fellow country men and women do, yet can accept that others do the same and do not object to them being noticed or applauded for it. |
Re: Igbo Ingenuity: Enugu To Support Inventor Of Wind Turbine For Power Generation by EkoIle1: 4:29am On Apr 02, 2012 |
Please stop and quit blaming other people for your usual lies and false claims. This is not about giving credit, it's about the usual lies, bogus claims and overreaching. Like I asked, when are you going to event water or even the air we breath? |
Re: Igbo Ingenuity: Enugu To Support Inventor Of Wind Turbine For Power Generation by londoner: 4:38am On Apr 02, 2012 |
The only error here is in the title of the written piece. The young man did not claim he invented the wind turbine did he? We all know here that wind turbines were in existence already. Does it mean you should rubbish what he is trying to do and the support being offered to him because of the incorrect application of the word "invented". People here are using the efforts of a Malawian boy who equally did not invent the wind turbine to rubbish what this Nigerian young man has done. They have both done the same thing, but Nigerians are unable to attribute any value when they consider the efforts of the Nigerian. Its not that they rubbish both young men.....they only rubbish the Nigerian effort.....lol |
Re: Igbo Ingenuity: Enugu To Support Inventor Of Wind Turbine For Power Generation by londoner: 4:44am On Apr 02, 2012 |
Well done Enugu gov for offering to support this young man and others hopefully. This is a step in the right direction definately. |

Its a very good thing that this guy has also looked at how the coal deposits in Enugu can be harnessed too. I really hope the state governments begin to harness the wealth of talent sitting right under their noses. |

@Londoner what's good? I'm serious now, what was your post about again? |
Re: Igbo Ingenuity: Enugu To Support Inventor Of Wind Turbine For Power Generation by Nobody: 5:11am On Apr 02, 2012 |
On a more serious note, there are many talents in Nigeria - and we shouldn't get carried away by this guy's achievement or lack thereof. Air turbines are obsolete - I think Nigerians and Nigeria deserves better. We can't praise a guy for creating a black and white TV - when people have since moved on to LCD and 3D TV. Nigeria is blessed with many talented people, and we shouldn't get carried away with mediocrity. |

YOU CAN USE HIGH POWERED ALTERNATOR OR HEAVY DUTY ALTERNATOR FROM A DIESEL VEHICLE . FABRICATE A 4 FEET WOODEN FAN BLADE ,JUST LIKE AN ENGINE FAN BUT BIGGER IN SIZE , ALSO FABRICATE LONG ROTATING POLE WITH 7''INCH IN DIAMETER ATTACH A LOW POWERED OIL BEARING FOR EASY FORWARD DRIVING MOTION , EVEN AT SLIGHTEST WIND MOVEMENT , ATTACH THE ALTERNATOR ON A 25 FEET POLE ,BUILD A PLATFORM TO HOLD ALTERNATOR IN PLACE BECAUSE IT IS GOING TO SIT ON A 25 FEET POLE WITH THE LONG 6 BLADE ATTACH TO IT ,THE BLADE SERVES AS A WIND GENERATOR ,RUN A 40 FEET CABLE TO A HEAVY DUTY BATTERY WITH VOLTAGE REGULATOR ,WITH THIS METHOD YOU CAN BUILD A POWER CONTROL SWITCH AND POWER STEP DOWN ............................................................ETC ETC . YOU CAN GENERATE ELECTRIC CITY USING ALTERNATOR FROM A VEHICLE OR AN ELECTRIC SCOOTER WHICH GENERATE 2500 AMP IT HAS SO MANY RANGE OF AMP GENERATOR SCOOTER ,ELECTRIC SCOOTER BIKE ,IT IS A COMMON CONCEPT AND INNOVATION ,I WILL BUILD MEDIUM WIND POWER GENERATOR FOR EACH NIGERIAN HOUSE HOLD ,TRUST ME |

as a black man from ss/se i can help nigeria develop a self re- chargeable family wind turbine power generator , when there is a low wind ,the turbine automatically switches it self on , using an external power saver ,external battery wired differently from supply battery when in a low wind velocity .i have build and tasted different wind generator using common alternator from small vehicle . i remember old grandpa bicycle back in days in the eastern nigeria village with small attached power generator to generate power for bicycle head lamp when the bicycle tire is rotating more especially at night ,it generates power high/low depend on the tire speed .malawian has the same bicycle generator concept . he simply fabricated a bigger wind blade to drive the same bicycle power generator attached to high elevated wooden pole back in village coupled with a lot of trees around in the malawian jungle , he used a car battery for power storage and he built small control box like switch on/off . |

Reminds me of this CNN article http://www.cnn.com/2011/09/26/world/africa/nigeria-sewage-biogas/index.html In the crowded slums of Lagos, Nigeria, untreated sewage mingles with the chaotic network of pipes that deliver water to the city. Those who can't afford a local borehole or a private vendor know better than to take their chances with the taps -- most preferring to go thirsty instead. |

I CAN DEVELOP MADE IN NIGERIA WIND TURBINE I HAVE THE CAPABILITIES . I CAN DEVELOP COMMERCIAL PROTOTYPE AND RESIDENTIAL PROTOTYPE DEPEND ON THE INDIVIDUAL'S POCKET CAPACITY . I CAN USE COMMON ELECTRIC SCOOTER TO SUPPLY 6 ROOM'S WITH A POWER INCLUDING HIGH ADAPTABLE LOAD ,USING HIGH VOLTAGE REGULATOR .SOME ELECTRIC MOTOR/SCOOTER CYCLE CAN PRODUCE CONSTANT 2,500 AMPS DEPEND ON THE MODEL , I HAVE SO MANY WAY TO PRODUCE LOW COST MADE IN NIGERIA FOR EVERY FAMILY IN THE WHOLE EASTERN DISTRICT SE/SS . IGBO KWENU EYAAAAA. TRUST ME |

Any innovation should be rolled out to all even if it begins and grows in one region, or does everything have to be limited by region,tribe or religion? We will soon get very tired of those three boxes that keep us trapped......... |

londoner: Any innovation should be rolled out to all even if it begins and grows in one region, or does everything have to be limited by region,tribe or religion? You can declare Biafra if you like the "three boxes" - and you lot can move to erosion ridden, land locked Biafra land and leave us the phuck alone. All you Igbo clowwns do is just moan, and huff and puff... I blame Bishop Ajayi Crowther for teaching you guys how to speak and write. |

Phuck you!!!! Yorubas are way ahead of Igbo gorillas in everything, you forest dwelling Idanre monkeys... When are you going to get tired of screaming Yorubas? We're not the only tribe in Nigeria.... Hausa/Fulani stay killing your kins like goats everyday but you will never say nothing about them, cowards. Keep Yoruba out of your mouth!!! |
