Mohammed Bah Abbah Credits: Although he holds no patent on this invention, he is credited with taking on the challenge of making accessible the “pot-in-pot refrigerator” or “zeer”, a refrigerating device that does not use electricity, to people in rural areas. He is a recipient of the Rolex Award for Enterprise, an award that provided $75,000 which Mohammed used to produce and distribute his invention in 11 northern states in Nigeria. Bio: Mohammed developed his pot-in-pot refrigerator by combining the knowledge he had gained from his grandmother’s craft of traditional pottery with simple laws of physics. He followed up on the idea by placing food in a small pot, which is then placed in a larger pot. The space between the two is filled with moist sand and a wet cloth cover is used to cover the whole set up. As the water in the moist sand evaporates through the larger pot, it carries heat away from the inner core of the whole set up. Mohammed holds no patent on this invention because the pot making business is not new. What is novel is the fact that he set up a local production facilities to provide the pot-in-pot for the cost of $2 (N320) for the smaller pot-in-pot refrigerator and $4 (N640) for the bigger versions. The invention allows perishable food to extend their spoilage rate. For example, meat can be stored in it for up to two weeks instead of a few hours. 14. Olu Atanda Credits: He is credited with the co-invention of a self-lubricating layer for a data-storage device and disk and holds the following patents at the USPTO. Self-lubricating layer for data storage devices, United States Patent No. 6,677,105, January 13, 2004. Self-lubricating layer for a data storage disk, United States Patent No. 6,430,114, August 6, 2002. 15. Brino Gilbert Credits: He is credited with the invention of the Counter Collision Gadget (CCG), a device that has the capacity to prevent accidents on the road, air, sea and rail. The invention earned him many awards including a bronze medal in the Aerospace/Aeronautics category at the May 2003 edition of the Invention and New Product Exposition (INPEX) in the United States. He also received a silver medal in the manufacturing category and a trophy for being the best invention from Africa in the continental category Bio: Gilbert is a Nigerian physicist from Edo State. He spent 10 years seeking government attention for his research and approached several groups and individuals for sponsorship. His vision is to make CCG exportable to many countries of the world. 16. Emeka Nchekwube Credits: He is credited with the co-invention of the following: Hypoestoxides, derivatives and agonists thereof for use as stent- coating agents, U.S. Patent no. 7229979 Hypoestoxides, derivatives and agonists thereof for use of antiparasitic agents Patent no. 6242484 Terfenadine oral powder, U.S. Patent no. 5455049 Solutions of pentamidine, U.S. Patent no. 4,853,416 Bio: Emeka Nchewube is a Nigerian-born Neurosurgeon who currently lives and practices in the United States. He was born in Lagos, Nigeria and earned his Bachelors degree in chemistry from Central Michigan University. He attended Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit where he also finished his Neurosurgery residency.

Henry240: The last time I checked such a report of nine pilots was made in 2010 hardly a year after SA received its first batch of Gripens. So since then SAAF has been standing idle doing nothing to increase its number of pilots. Recruitments were made and some pilots were sent to Cuba and Russia. That is what I call progress. 2 Likes |
