Autos › The Man Who Invented The First Indigenous Nigerian Car Called Z-600 Is Dead by Built2last(op): 11:22am On Jul 19, 2020
Engr. Ezekiel Izuogu Is Dead

Renowned Inventor, Electrical and Automobile engineer, Engr. Ezekiel Izuogu, from Ideato North local government of Imo State is dead.

According to family sources, Engr. Izuogu died in the early hours of today, July 18th, 2020.

Recall that In 1997, Engr. Ezekiel Izuogu, who at that time was also a lecturer at Federal polytechnic Nekede made waves across Nigeria and Africa after he singlehandedly designed and developed the Izuogu Z-600, the first African indigenously manufactured car.

n 2005, the Z-600 started getting interests from other African countries.

MORE ABOUT HIM

In 2006, the South African government expressed keen interest in the car. They wanted Izuogu to build it in South Africa. They invited him to set up a plant in South Africa and begin the mass production of the car. Izuogu reluctantly agreed. According to him, he didn’t like the idea that Nigerians will not benefit from the employment the project will generate.

However, on Saturday, March 11 2006, no fewer than 12 heavily armed men broke into Dr. Izuogu’s factory in Naze in Imo State. The men carted away various machines and tools including the design history notebook of Z-600. They also stole the design file Z-MASS, containing the design history for mass production of Z-600 car. The moulds for various parts of the car was also taken away.

This was a big setback for the project. Since then not much is known on the status of the car. However, there have been reports that unauthorized versions of the car are being manufactured in several countries of the world.


The Izuogu Z-600 prototype was equipped with a self-made 1.8L four-cylinder engine that got 18mpg. It allowed the car to achieve a top speed of 140 km/h (86 mph). Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) was chosen over Rear Wheel Drive (RWD) because a transmission tunnel, which RWD would require, would be more expensive to fabricate. 90% of the car’s components were made locally.

The design of the car was very utilitarian resembling a Renault 4. It has an upright stance and a front end that vaguely resembles the locally assembled Peugeot 504.

To be priced at $2000 it would have been the cheapest car in the world. Clever features like a doorbell used in place of a horn ensure it achieves its low price target.



May His Soul Rest In Peace �

This is Tiger Foods Limited. Please take time to go through the photos, see their equipment, the hygienic environment, their products and all.

Then, pay particular attention to the fact that although the company has branches in many African countries and other parts of Nigeria, THEIR HEADQUARTER REMAINS HERE IN ONITSHA, Igbo land. And it is that headquater you are looking at. See how neat and hygienic everywhere is.

I know that each time we talk of "AKU RUO UNO", some will always have a million and one reasons why they cannot cite that their new business in Ala-Igbo but I tell you what, as reasonable as those reasons of yours may be, Igbo land will not be developed by spirits. It is still us who must develop our region. Go to the innermost part of Maiduguri, Sokoto and even those war-ravaged areas without ordinary Telecom network in the North, and you will see ndi-be-anyi doing business and building mansions there but tell them about Ala-Igbo and they will have millions of reasons to give you. The only thing some of us consider Ala-Igbo good for is bringing ozu umunne anyi back home as if na be-anyi buzi cemetary.

At some point, we have to stop playing to the gallery and start walking our talk. "Aku" can never ruo "uno" unless we defy all odds to make it happen.

This is untrue! There are millions of Nigerians who are not corrupt even with the opportunity to be corrupt and you'd likely know this if you were one of us.

Unfortunately, despite millions of uncorrupt Nigerians, "to fix Nigeria go hard" indeed because many think like you do to justify their own corruptness.

This war has began

Increasing aggression of China cannot be ignored. China is turning its back on international law. It seems only a matter of time before China uses its Armed Forces in a calculated act of aggression to further its policy of expansion. It is acting in violation of UNs Law of the Sea. It has ignored and rejected the ruling of the International Court of Arbitration in the Hague, that China has no claim on Filipino waters and atolls. It killed Indian soldiers in a premeditated act. The seriousness of the situation should not be ignored. The situation is very similar to the Sudetenland and Appeasement. Soon the West will be faced with the same decision on what to do.

Before AFRICA wakes us. we will be China's extended territory. 80 percent of everything used in Nigeria from abroad is from China.

They have a plan

The irony of the investigation is the thief catcher has been caught thiefing.

The laughable part is that if you thoruoughly investigate all the panelists investigating the thief catcher. you will discover they have all at one point either blantantly stolen or have taken bribes.

"Saint Michael the Archangel , defend us in battle. Be our protection against
the wickedness and snares of the devil; May God rebuke him, we humbly
pray ; And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for
the ruin of souls.
This is a stupid prayer you just made. it didn't cross your roof.

Michael is an angel and takes order from God. Can you ask Buhari's chief security officer to defend you without talking to Buhari.
