..question should rather be..wetin you dey do for Nigeria abi you no be Nigerian? undecided

Good question.

I wonder why people like pointing fingers, shifting blame and feeling that making Nigeria a better country is somebody else's responsibilities forgetting they're also Nigerian.... undecided

Question should be... "What am I doing for the motherland?". Let's all think in that line and find productive positive endeavors to do for the motherland and find ways to bring it to fruition no matter the discouraging political, mental, economical and ethnical problems we're being dumped with. Only then will self made millionaires who would aid our economy as a people be created

The human resources are much but have been a victim of neglect over the years.

Check out Japan, they barely have natural resources but their human resources is priceless. Britain can't compete with us in any resources (with their wet, cold ugly weather and seasons) but they've got the right mindset, the love for their Queen and their land and have self worth. Sending (though most go everywhere by themselves and only win colonies for the Queen and of course themselves) powerful minds like the brilliant pragmatic criminal minded businessman, John Cecil Rhodes everywhere to make conquests, all to the glory of the Queen and Britain and of course his own wide open pockets.

When would we love our motherland that much to allow our search for a fat pocket align with bringing glory to the motherland?

Now, we had the NDDC program but do you know with all the billions spent on the program none of it's beneficiaries can boast of learning anything that would make them pursue creative and productive exploits?

instead, they're all back, looking for jobs. (my friend included, though he almost always share with me, even making me visit the Arabs for my very first time). But what I'm saying is, with all the money spent, couldn't they have spent it on people that will return to run industries over here? That was the secret of Japan's success. Learn from Europe and build on what you learnt "IN YOUR OWN COUNTRY"...


Sleep dey make me talk/type too much but we gotta do something about the Dumbos we elected in the government

Let's take it as our responsibility to make the motherland the gem she's supposed to be.

Cheers

It's synonymous with riding keke or okada along Lagos-Ibadan highway. Did u just say okada? Wat else can u ride on lagos ibadan road?
That innovative technology is well adapted for still and less turbulent water bodies like streams and rivers. The waves and nefarious winds of the sea will drown him and his bicycle.

Learn to applaud people before criticising them. It's called Constructive Criticism.For your info, all the innovative technologies started out like this before they were automated and computerized.

What if the chain of the bicycle breaks while he is at the middle of the sea?
There is absolutely no way he can pedal it back shore.
To me this invention isn't worth it.

Pedal/Paddle boats and bicycles are nothing new...why do we misuse the word 'invention'?

Another day, another high school level art and craft project being put forward as an invention.

PS: I agree with the other poster that this stuff is only suited for calm water bodies.

.keep deceiving yourself. the Ghanian man in question, did the government assist him in creating the bicycle?. now that he has created something of note,am sure he must have gotten the attention of the government and maybe private companies. do your part first then at least hope on the government to fufil their part not you dropping your whole problem on government
many people av try their best in Nigeria but government no look their place

Good he is trying to create sth new, sth different, but....

when creating a new solution to an existing problem, it is actually greatly welcomed and appreciated if it is a much better solution than the existing ones....

How safe is that thing? How much energy is required to pedal through the waves etc.. Again does it ride normal on road and in water or u go carry am for head reach river then start pedal am?....

Sorry to say but to me this is BEAUTIFUL NONSENSE

My brother my brother......This ya comment make me laff die. All your questions are quite correct but make we just encourage am say he try. make the inventor nor vex abandon project because of this ya comment cheesy
