With the poisonous fumes the young man is inhaling.......haba.
Fabricating a fume cupboard should be an easy task for him and buying a 3M respirator too should not be a seen as a waste of f resources.

Sadly they won’t help support the young man, imagine what this guy can do if the govt gives him adequate support, we need to start buying our own products, the pandemic made us realise that we have to be self sufficient
Na OYO every country dey
You people should stop crying to government that is useless. Go there and buy one, tell your friends and family to buy one and the chain continues. If not you are as good as the government you are crying to.
Start the buying chain before you know he grows without the government funding
Re: Umar Yusuf Builds Modern Bicycles To Empower Citizens by SeriouslySense(m): 2:16pm On Jul 10, 2020
Good work, i would like to buy his bicycle

Re: Umar Yusuf Builds Modern Bicycles To Empower Citizens by AsomughaChuks02: 2:17pm On Jul 10, 2020
They keep asking for government support but after support, you don't see them again. They either use the money to relocate abroad or to start building a house. The one that made a sports car in Jos, nobody has seen him since he took pictures with his governor
Re: Umar Yusuf Builds Modern Bicycles To Empower Citizens by SeriouslySense(m): 2:17pm On Jul 10, 2020
Exactly you are smart

Bro, it's not the government's responsibility to support people who have a business idea. Just because someone makes a contraption doesn't mean the government has to reward the person. This is a capitalist society, not a socialist one. It's not the government's business.

If the contraption provides enough value, what stops him from getting investors and mass producing to turn a profit?

The only thing the govt is needed for here is to ban the importation of bicycle.

There are many people that will invest in this venture

I'm not trying to be rude or something,but what exactly is special in this particular bicycle that he's innovating,in an age where we're talking about inventing flying cars and cars that don't need drivers.

Las Las,Hausa amaka!!!
U are right he was not Igbo,he was Hausa and i bet u never even tried to make a slippers in your pathetic egusi eating mama chinedu life. That's the reason people like u hated progress if the guy is not in ur tribe or religion a habit that the progressed world left long ago,i bet all u know is ogbono soup and ogboroko.

my ancestors or God, see rubbish question

anybody that puts up the platform will handle it
or you organise it like Kickstarter, the man with the idea receive funding by selling IOU to the public to raise capital for his project, if it makes sense, support him.

our job will be to monitor the recipient and ensure transparency
Mr. Man! wake up from your fantasy land.

I beleive you have been watching too much cartoons or spending too much time on Tik Tok.

Go and learn how the world and your current reality works.

Re: Umar Yusuf Builds Modern Bicycles To Empower Citizens by XwhY(m): 2:46pm On Jul 10, 2020
1000likes for this.
This is what I want to be seeing in my country.
At this century and age of our independence, we are not supposed to be importing something like bicycle into Nigeria.
