President Buhari Voice Recognition Program - Contest For 50,000 Naira by Seun(m): 1:13pm On Jul 20, 2015
As a sequel to the signature contest, here's a more challenging contest for programmers who are true computer scientists:

Write a program that will read a sound recording (mp3 format) containing at least 10 seconds of a Nigerian politician talking, and then print "Yes" to the console if the person speaking in the sound recording is President Buhari, and "No" if the person speaking is not President Buhari.

You can use any common programming language that runs on Windows 7/8/10. Use only open source libraries that I can compile on Windows.

The prize is 50,000 naira and I will award it to the first contestant whose code achieves a high level of accuracy (~90%).

Good luck!

Are you joking you offer no signed paper, no picture of the prize,how do we hold you to your word, no site to prove authenticity and 90% accuracy is too much for a Microsoft app,Even the the least VR set aren't that accurate.

Price of authenticity you want. Go and sleep in your house.

Can you pls shut up and stop disturbing those working on this project?

Stop being so pessimistic. This is a challenge and let our youths try and meet that challenge.

The harder the challenge, the better they will become.

How do we submit the code for assessment. I am assuming 'no holds barred' as concerning language of implementation. Is my assumption correct?

I was never pessimistic,I was only questioning the viability. And if you are indeed a good programmer,my "disturbance" wouldn't be an hindrance to your productivity. I f I have been one, I apologize. My mild rhetoric is aimed at those would sit over a PC screen to work on this and not you my overly optimistic 'friend' do you even know the time frame of this contest?What is wrong with you?
