Nigerian Plant Science Graduate Builds A Car For Himself In Ibadan (VIDEO) by CampussNews: 10:08am On Nov 30, 2021 |
Update from Ibitoye Olajide Micheal, a graduate of Plant science from Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU) has singlehandedly built a sports car for himself. In an exclusive interview with BBC pidgin, the man said that he is from Orin Ekiti in Ekiti state. He had his secondary school education at the Polytechnic High School in Ibadan. He said he would have wanted to study mechanical engineering at the Olabisi Onabanjo University but he was denied admission on two different occasions. When his admission finally came, he was given plant science instead. The young man said he started building the car during his final year. With a strong passion for machines, he decided that his first car will be the one built with his hands. On speaking about his challenges as an engineer, he said: “The first one is money, I couldn't get sponsors, the second is tools and the third is people perspective, what they say about the project but I didn't allow those things to weigh me down.” The man revealed that he spent a total number of four years to conclude the project. During his National Youth Service Crops programme, he was able to save 80% of his allowance to fund car production. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-cFSyKYD_o https:///nigerian-plant-science-graduate-builds-a-car-for-himself-in-ibadan-video/ Seun Lalasticlala 1 Like

There’s like one in a million chance of being successful in Nigeria doing something out of the ordinary like what this young man did. So many odds working against you, from lack of funds, to lack of basic infrastructure like electricity and water, to lack of jobs to sustain you while you build your dream project, to lots of pessimists out there, to lack of access to education. This young man could not even achieve his dream of becoming a graduate of mechanical engineering because we have refused to upgrade our education system to accommodate more people. |
