It won't come to fruition. Every product is made inorder for the econoMy to grow and not to stop growing. If it stops the economy from growing, creativity dies. What am I trying to say, If that unrefined gadget is for instance made into a good device for every tom, d!ck and harry, it will shut down most service providers and in turn cause major unemployment.

Do we think that no one has come with an idea to give every household free electricity? Google on the history of electricity and how people contributed to it , and also how they equally lost their lives tryna make it free. Who killed them? ...lips sealed..

This boy will certainly be recruited by the white; His brain washed and finally preached on how to make money of the black folks (Africa). He will surely be compensated fully and finally, he will deny he ever came outta the root of AFRICa.

I'm still surprised at the comments i have been reading regarding this guy's creation ever since it reached FP.

what he created is a walkie-talkie, (even though this one is bulky) and it's mostly used in the military and paramilitary.

It's not an invention, that is how olden days telecommunications systems work until they decided to commercialize it, and made it more advance as we have today.

It's only in the military and paramilitary that we can still find it today. They have a short range of communication and limited channels.

Even as it is, he can only use it within his domain because there are stringent laws binding radio frequency allocation/usage, due to interference issues. He will need a license to operate it in a public domain.

And I can see him having issues with already existing telecommunication companies if he decides to commercialize it.

Although, I appreciate his creative mind he deserves to be commended and encouraged.
... So Boss what's your point really?

Nice one.
Petrus will soon be offered a full scholarship to go study science in a foreign school and they would make sure he gets a good job before he graduates.

Petrus will meet a 'nice' girl, get married and start having children over there.
He will get all the funding he needs for his research and more.

Petrus may never come to Africa again.
He will be offered citizenship easily.

The sad tale of many African geniuses.
That is the sad reality. Place like China will study his project and turn the boy to state property. Guarding him jealously. In Africa, him will be stolen in broad day light. Years later, some slowpoke will be writing about Africans in diaspora doing Africa proud.

That it's not an invention (i.e not new) but people are seeing it like something that has never been created before.

The billing system we have today is as a result of generating profit and also for maintenance purpose.

If the guy decides to also go into mass production, he will also create a billing system for it. The cost of acquiring a license is enough on its own
