Alex, on X, said the boy’s innovation is cheaper than candle and was built for market people who sell bean cakes (akara), roasted yams and other edibles in villages at night.
Odera charges token for his power solution Alex, the CEO of Educare, explained that an average person uses two to three candles per night and one costs N150.
However, Odera’s innovation has helped them save money on candles as he only charges N70 per light bulb used every night.
Alex hailed Odera, saying his creation, which is controlled remotely, is the type of thing he loves to invest in due to its societal impact to a large number of people.
Alex wrote: “This youngster from my village named Odera developed this renewable power solution that is cheaper than using a candle. “He built it for market people in villages selling akara, bole, roasted yam suya at night so they can stay longer and earn more money. “The cost of one candle today is N150 and an average person uses 2 to 3 candles per night. He installs his solution at no cost and charges N70 per light bulb used every night.
“This solution can only power light bulbs and recharges with solar. He remotely controls it.
“This is the type of thinking I love to invest my money in. It has large societal impact especially to the unreached.”
