Anyone building a new technology understands that success partly depends on adding value: That is, demonstrating that your technology is better than your competitors. Only in this way can innovators attract investors and satisfy managers. Making a smaller, faster, lighter, more efficient replacement for something that already exists is relatively easy. It’s much harder to create something genuinely new and different. Having this in mind, its unfortunate that Nigeria learning environment and practical experiences in school is very backward and the zeal to learn is death on arrival because of so many factors. Where hard-work is not equal to results because lectures don't have the timidity to respect hard work in schools, where hard-work isn't the result to good work. And this is potentially killing the energy and language students have towards learning. The curriculum is not evaluated to see if it's able to allow students compete favorably with its counterparts abroad, we are...
