Nigerian, Aghogho, Builds Mini Aircraft (Picture &video) by Cornel88(op): 9:33pm On Jan 30, 2016

The power of the mind and how much it can achieve is seen in the act of Aghogho, a young man without a degree, who read how aircrafts are made and brought it to life.

“I have not been to any school, I do my research at home” Aghogho said.

Aghogho’s first aircraft flew in 1999 with many setbacks since then

After many failures, he started to think there was something spiritual about things that fly

According to Elbert Hubbard, in these days, a man who says a thing cannot be done is quite apt to be interrupted by someone doing it.

There is much the mind can achieve if we go after the information we need to do whatever we want to do.

Aghogho has become a ray of hope for many; young and old in his community


Watch Aghogho’s aircraft fly. Enjoy the video.

This is beautiful!

We need to understand that not everybody will have a degree. Everybody should put into practice whatever knowledge he or she has.


This is why I will set up institutions that are strictly practical; institutions where you can go and learn anything you want BY PRACTICALS ONLY. With these we will have a lot of artisans and technology-minded people.

So Help Me God!

Despise not the days of thy little beginnings. He only is a fool who did nothing because he could do a little. However you need graduates for aesthetic designs and engineering solutions o. #CONGRATULATIONS GUY

...and thats "brain". I wonder what he could have achieved if he had gotten the training in the best and formal way. Brilliant.
Re: Nigerian, Aghogho, Builds Mini Aircraft (Picture &video) by Nobody: 10:37pm On Jan 30, 2016
A degree is just a collection of opinion developed in the mind of *acclaimed* specialists who knew you for Just 4-6 years.



Damn You.
Just 4 years and you think you know me
You don't know shit bout me

Re: Nigerian, Aghogho, Builds Mini Aircraft (Picture &video) by doctokwus:
Watched the video and must say the guy is gifted.
He even has some with fitted cameras.
This is the kind of talent that should be snapped up either by the military or the govt itself,sent on specialized technical training to the best institutes or military complex abroad and brought back in a few years to kick start or advance the military industry or the aerospace industry.
Imagine a guy with no formal education doing this much, how much more can he do with a few years of specialized aeronautical training.
Nigeria govt think, think!

Awesome! Hoping Nigerian military can encourage this man and other savvy individuals to promote this into a surveillance device. It's high time we stopped depending on the rest of the world when we have the needed human resources.

rubbish.



Instead of wasting time doing this, he should channel his energy doing something that the need is immediate, possibly mini drones that can be used for aerial surveilance.

From the report he has been on designing airplane since 1999, with little success,
