No, he did the programming and all.
He did the operating system too?

It is neither Symbian, Android, windows or Apple ?

Wee don't have venture capitalist in Nigeria. We only have religious investors!! Seed sowers et al. No investment in ideas. That's why we have many mosques and churches, without technological improvement in our lives

These so called creators usually go nowhere.

It can never be commercialised the normal route. It can't complete against the fiercely competitive Chinese brands and their huge advertised.

I think an online marketplace should be created to cater to these creators

I'm sure there'll be a collectors market for things like this

See the level of literacy in the East. This local man doesn't seem to have gotten higher education but he can communicate well in English. Unlike the others in Nigeria especially the S westerners

I dont want to think that he dismantled a Nokia phone and and tied it in that wood because what he holds has not performed any function.

It is the same dumb assertion that that they have not been able to project that is he still parroting.

So you believe this?
If you are good,they will look for you because you are creative and sellable.
😂😂😂 U said my mind. Baba go piece phone tie am for wood and start looking for who to sponsor him 😂😂

No wahala, make he dey use am o.
Phone with wood.
Did he also made the screen by himself?

Glimpsetv:
A Nigerian man amazed people as he explained the mechanism behind the phones he built using wood. The phones function just like small Nokia torchlight phones. The man, who identified himself as Uzoma Isaiah, has called for support to help him do more, specifically with proper packaging. Africa, especially Nigeria, is rich in talent. Watch the video below.

Nigeria has been wasting talents especially of Igbos since amalgamation. Great leaders like Ojukwu discovered it quiet early but the forces of laziness especially from other sections have been an obstacle to our potentials. Unity beggers who are scared of their survival should Igbos exit the British Business centre called Nigeria.

Ndi Developer and vague chest beating sha ! He has only removed the "intestine" of a regular functioning mobile phone and put them inside a wood packaging to mask the fraud he has committed.

well he tried and deserve commendation for his effort but it's not more than that.

Nigeria education system need to improve, secondary school students that are tech base should be able to dismantle and assemble phone in a wooden case like this. That's what students in developed countries like China, Japan and even US are capable of it lay the foundation for much bigger things but here most of what we learn are useless stuff
Are you saying a new phone company can't be established again because we already have plenty phones in the market?

Should new car markers close shop because they are not going to solve any new problem.

Too much theory like this with zero practical experience is killing Africa. Nigeria theorists know what can't work but dies not know what can work.

Pls help us lay a foundation for a machine that can roast corn

Very funny, the programming involved in making a scientific calculator and embedding it inside an electronic board will cost a whole university final year computer graduate over 10 years to complete considering our present scientific knowledge.

Beside the technology is not available.
