why you guys complaining...they did something not undo something

Ferdinandu:
My Friend hang that your hand. Why should you and that imbec1le be looking down on other peoples effort? People like 2 of paid somebody to produce mediocre projects for u while in school. Haters.

If not that i have an online Gf who has cautioned me to respect others opinion online( i know she's watching), i would have placed you close to hell. Keep feeding your thoughts.

Nice innovation, makes me remember one of this movie i watched in 1976. Its one of this James Bond movie, uhmmm......can someone remind me the title?

Greatest Giants! GREAT!

AS AN ALUMNUS OF THIS GREAT CITADEL, I CONGRATULATE THEM ON THIS GREAT FEAT.

UNIZIK FACULTY OF ENGINEERING HAS ALWAYS SET THE PACE IN INNOVATION

MY PROJECT TEAM PRODUCED AN ATM, THE FIRST IN NIGERIA AND THE PROJECT WON SEVERAL AWARDS, ONLY THAT WE COULD NOT GET SPONSORSHIP TO CONTINUE ON THE RESEARCH.

MUCH RESPECT TO UNIZIK FACULTY OF ENGINEERING A.K.A "WILDERNESS "

A journey of a thousand miles starts with a limp.

Must that body look sooo odd?
Cant they relax and do proper body work?
Also an engineer but i must tell you, that car look odd and not impressive.
they chose to build a car, why cant they do normal body finishing.
it is a no no for me......
For God sake they are University student and definitely not Level 1 or 2

good criticsm , it should not be a no no .. it should be a yes yes , with a goal of helping them , supporting them in the good body work you complained about ... how many level 1 and 2 are doing this.

Feraz:
Oho!!! Now, you're making reference to these countries. Nigerians and hypocrisy. These same set of people will rant China made/India made and will state how it is not on par with Western nations yet when it comes to what a Nigerian has made, the technologies they so condemn automatically becomes adorable. They forget that despite the low quality work done by these people, they were encouraged which made them what/where they are presently and turned into nations where different firms outsource their various productions.
There really is an inherent problem with us. For students with that budget (#400, 000), they tried taking into consideration the negative factors that abound here in this country. But as the usual crowd mentality that we all have, we condemn, they never bothered reading the article to see that it was #.4 million yet they come here to criticise and say how they can couple sheets of metals together and voila! the car is made. Tomorrow, they'll say Nigerian students are not creative enough, they don't read anymore when they can't see a simple figure up in the above article about these young undergraduates. We should keep wallowing in our hypocrisy.

I'm sure when we hear and see what team Uniben did in South Africa recently, we'd still condemn.

You guys don't just get it. No one does things like this anywhere in the world, it doesn't just make sense. I am not comparing Nigeria with those countries as we don't even know what we are doing (Just like these guys, you and many others on this thread), our education system is still lost in the 60's. Let me give you an example of what I mean in simple term; take for example, because your parents didn't buy you a shoe when you were 3 years old won't make you as a 20 year old kid to go and buy a shoe meant for a 3 year old kid so as to cover lost ground. Actually you can buy it but to sane people like me it will look stupid, that's exactly what these guys are doing. India's Minister of Science and Technology recently said they lost in the semi-conductors revolution when countries like Taiwan, Singapore, China, etc were keying into this revolution, but they can't afford to lose out in the nano-technology revolution going on presently. They are spending billions of dollars in research not into semi-conductors but into nano-materials and nano-technology cause they are not looking backwards but into the future and in the next 10-20 years we will see the result in their Health care, IT, manufacturing, etc. We need to join the world in the race and help develop what is going on at the present, there are many ways in which we can do this but surely not in assembling this.

@seun u go banned us tire. Just continue. U go tire

What time do u have for such When most students start project immediately after degree exam.

well...they are students and learners

there is room for improvement

They should improve on their skills and produce something better,

With the support of the government/society they will do better.

Let's prove that we can do it

icemann:
Nice, A lot better than the guy that stuck a solar panel on a car (see below) and called it an "Electric Pneumatic hybrid car" and Foolss were calling him the new Elon Musk.

Elon Musk ko, Nikola Tesla ni.

what these guys did is commendable,but the most commendable thing is the contribution of their department by funding the project to the tune of 4million.The truth is that the only difference between the west and others is the amount of money they spend in sponsoring research and projects such as these .With this new attitude, there is no doubt that Nigeria will move forward, and our youth will be encouraged to do even greater and novel works

Khalessi:
Nigerians celebrating mediocrity since the beginning of time, I can see the plastic bottle that's been used to hold the fuel.

bro , park somewhere jooo .... is it with our educational system we will join the world , these guys have not stolen or vandalised pipe lines , they did this from their pockets ... if the educational system is wack , we should fix it not condemn people trying to build on their ideaas and knowledge .... if you have worked in a reputable company , you will know no idea is too small , backward or oo forward . they all build on the ideas . you want to join the world , where are the resources , do the average nigerian graduate match up to any graduate outsde there in terms of exposure , reaseach and developments. like I said ,how many mechanical graduates knows the priniples behind a movin vehicle ... we are not whites .we dont have to compre ourselves to them when it pertains some issue , they never compared themselves when they needed to build the first car , these graduates may have got the zeal to learn , it is obvious .if they have better resources , they will do better .... thats the truth . pls , they should be encouraged . btw whats your line of exprtise, you should give a link to your work or linkedin page.

propaganda,my mechanic can do better than this....

Good engineering is economically feasible and useful.
Instead of creating this prototype, they could have looked towards the direction of fabricating sellable vehicle parts e.g carburetors, exhaust pipes. Doing this, they will make cool cash.
Building a full vehicle like this is inefficient and infeasible.

great criticism , it is the corupt part of projects that kills the ideas and knowledge behind it .....this is what we need to fight not the ideas and skills.

majekdom2:
anybody can do it , how many are doing it .....which have you done in your line of expertise ? actions speaks louder than work ...if the japense were criticised for making those small adding machines am sure they would never have made the scientific . well you are only thinking lame about no one wanting to invest in them ... the truth is they stood out from their peers in a little way.

The bold was an invention, please tell me one thing new about what this guys did. I am not criticizing these guys but their Professor who made them do things like this. What they did cannot be published in any International journal with more than 1-impact factor if it will be taken in any journal at all (except maybe the like of our naija kangaroo local journals). I am very sure these students will bear the cost of buying all this fairly used parts. It is ridiculous.

Let me answer your question now, as kids we built things like these with empty cans and woods, the difference between this and ours is that we didn't have money to buy a fairly used engine.

Finally!!! Somebody who thinks. It's time we stopped feeling pity for ourselves and embrace reality. The word is moving with pace, we can't keep up with this sorta shit.

Why do we continue to celebrate inadequacies in Nigeria?

This is a piece of shyte and primary school students should be ashamed.

But I don't blame this mor0ns though, when their Vice Chancellor is too busy parading alleged rapists around the campus and leading jungle justice cowboys.

am very sure , you are not in the engineering line . you built when you were young with cans , whats the science behind the motion ? have you bothered to ask the science behind the motion of that project ... bro , the japenese or chinese never invented the adding machine , they only built on already known technology in their own way. the iron and other equipments are not their inventions . you should check on the science used .pls , if we envisage development , we should not talk down something which is worth it . like I said , you should drop a link to one of your international works.

Just here to identify with my Alma mata
Once a giant, always a giant.
N.B: All of ya condemning their efforts probably can't even handle a spanner not to talk of constructing anything at all in your whole entire life. Smh

yea , it is moving at pace . does condemning this project makes us faster or will it make a high school graduate who knows nothing about physics create something better ... pls , stop talking down . btw , where is you work or publication of ideas to make us move faster.

They can do better than this...this work with the right push would see to Nigeria producing better automobiles. That's what I sincerely feel on the inside.

Innoson should employ this fellows and give them the right push to better facilities, equipment and technological atmosphere...

Make them Bag A For this project oooo.

Nigerians, stop feeling sympathy for your predicament, strive to break beyond your current barrier. This project would have been more welcomed both home and abroad if the guys had put in more efforts to create something out of the ordinary. But look, take a closer look, they created something we all were expecting. I'm sure most of us here would do better if given the opportunity. If this project work was sent to represent nigeria among the japanese, Germans, etc. I'm sure not only me, but you will be embarrassed and humiliated as well.

if these guys are equiped with better resources and knowledge , wouldnt they do better . we should change the situation , so as to provide better resources not talk down ideas.

For what purpose would that serve? I'm not here to promote my automotive achievements, of which there are many.

I'm not here to debate with you but to offer my individual opinion.

Offers yours and shove off. You're part of the problem why we are stuck in the stone ages in Nigeria.
