I noticed there was no section for inventors. What a shame!

Where is Jessica Mathew, a 25-year-old Nigerian, from Edo State that invented the football that generates electricity.

Akindele Abiola, and Faleke Oluwatoyin, all age 14, and Bello Eniola, 15 invented a urine powered generator...aint that worthy of some recognition?

Durojaiye Kehinde Obasanjo is an inventor. He has invented and constructed a vehicle that could be used in the air on land and water: an amphibian jet.

26 year-old Ibrahim Adekunle never went to Secondary School. Attending a University is not one of his plans. After dropping out of Primary school due to financial constraints, he trained as a Blacksmith and Welder. But his knack for reconstructing and re-modelling transport vehicles has ensured that despite his little formal education, his name is known across the world for good.
Some weeks ago, his “Limousine Tricycle” was one of the five selected inventions on the BBC’s coverage of the Maker Faire Africa, an exhibition for inventors which took place in Lagos.

This is just a minute few just to mention. And these people are better recipients than murderers, rogue politicians and public servants that made the list.

And lest I forget, where is 2face Idibia that gave Nigerian music a great lift.

I think the persons that compiled that list are worthy of jail terms.

And need I mention, that Boko Haram struck again while those rogues were receiving their unmerited awards.

A group of young men were given the responsibility to clear up a refuse dump site and when they were done, they intended to send a message to habitats (human habitats of course) in the environ -DUMP NO REFUSE HERE- but unfortunately they ended up with –DUMP NO REFUGE HERE- which I think was a result of the level of their literacy, close to zero percent level of formal education to be precise. But is it just the below average educated folks that do send the wrong message unintentionally? The obvious answer is NO! Fortunately, I happen to have added network administration to my resume, computer networks actually, and core network geeks would be familiar with the acronym MOTD (Message Of The Day). Don’t knock your head over if have no idea what that is, it’s just a message displayed at the front door of a network, no big deal. A certain network admin happen to set h...
