A Nigerian man Emeka Nelson claims to have developed an electricity generator that is powered by water

– The young inventor started a fundraising campaign, hopes to get N2,000,000 (or $10,000) asap

– Emeka promises that his new invention, an “ultra modern bio digester” is coming soon

Nsukka-born Emeka Nelson claims to have invented a generator that runs on water, a machine for recycling non-biodegradable wastes. His third invention, a bio digester, is under development.

A graduate of the National Metallurgical Training Institute has started a fundraising campaign on social media trough his partner, Karo Kanye Akamune.

Apparently, the young man needs at least N1,000,000 (about $5,000) right now for continuation of his research and products’ improvements. The next step is to collect two million naira from angel investors.

“Creative and inventive minds in Africa should be identified, supported and celebrated. Instead of marrying a third wife or building a forth house you would hardly ever sleep in, invest that money in people like Emeka Nelson,” Karo Kanye Akamune urges Nigerians on Facebook.

Emeka runs his private company, Creative E Machines, based in Awka, Nigeria.

“I can imagine a world where human feaces, urine etc are turned into cooking gas and best of fertilizers for our farmers.

“I can imagine a society where this machine replaces all our soak away and pit latrine toilet systems. Creative minds tech team is working on it now,” the scientist/engineer wrote in his post dated February 6, announcing the new invention.

“Always remember, a country that does not produce man-made goods and services will always lag behind,” Karo Kanye Akamune notes.

In your opinion, should these guys be funded or investigated?

On the health content of all three brands now in the Nigerian markets, a consusltant-nutritionist attached to St. Michael’s Hospital in Abule Oja, Lagos, Dr. Michael Maduka discussed the difference between Ijebu gari and Delta gari with our correspondent at his office last weekend.

In his analysis, Maduka revealed that the food values in both brands are worlds apart.

“Ijebu gari has the same wheat content as you have in elubo, which is ground dried cassava, or amala which is a favourite of the Yorubas in the Western part of the country.

“Its sour taste is the result of heavy degree of fermentation over longer period on high temperature which converts its starchy and sugary content into alcohol.

“As a result, its fibre texture is less than what you have in semovita or the Delta or Ibo brand of gari. Ijebu gari especially light and helpful to people who easily put on weight naturally and is recommended for those who really need to watch their weight.”

emeraldknytt:
i think i'll pass. BTW, why dont you liaise with super-marts like shoprite, danax, lilyfield etcetera

We have in few of them. As those bigger ones require a lot of processing

emeraldknytt:
bebe, only you making Ftc almost on all threads. Anyway, Op how much is it per kg? Is it available for purchase in Ibadan?

People have been buying from Ibadan but no reseller yet over there. You can become one.

OluchiDelly:
OP, good initiative.
I have this observation about some or most ijebu garri .
I have visited some areas and saw most of the local processes. When they removed the shafts by sifting/using a mesh, the shafts /waste which is suppose to be dispose or given to animals as feeds, they will gather the shafts fry, grind and mix it with the good ones that have already been fried just to boost the quantity for sale.
Do you also fry, grind, mix your shafts with the normal /good Garri?

That is called "Lebu" in yoruba. No we don't. We sell that separately as it is very very good making eba or putting it on beans.

We have said it that a day will come when people will realise that non-hygienic(unpackaged) raw foods will cease to be the order of the day.

Not well fried Garri and dirty ones are dangerous to your health, especially those infested with rats faeces.

Our packaged Garri is second to none. Immediately it is well fried, we start the packaging. No time to waste.

Check it out.

Call or whatsapp 09051810895 to order or start reselling.
