Young Kenyan inventor has ambitious plans for his robotic creations

A young Kenyan is proving that a lack of funding should not affect your dreams. Samuel Zila is a self-taught robot maker. His creations help around the house, but he has far bigger dreams for them in the future. CGTN's Wilkister Nyabwa has this story.

When I become rich I'll build an innovation hub that will be open to every kid from every background. Technology is the future.

[@cypriantertullian7495]

Great job, brother. Somebody please help this young man by sponsoring him financially. We need more young people like him in Africa. We have way too many music entertainers and dancers than inventors like this young brother here. That's why our enemies keep saying we're only good at dancing, and sports. We need to be good at science and technology too.

[@jojoisland7227]

Tertullian Tertulian he is very smart. I also hope he gets sponsored.

[@leemsylazy9353]

I totally agree with you. Too many brilliant guys like him all over Africa. Governments should encourage and sponsor them. Take them to conventional tech schools or universities. If he was a guy with a dubious beat the whole of Africa and diaspora would know him and start dancing. Africans hate progress innovations but love dancing. As an African am stating that we should stop depending on others or begging them, worshipping them.

Thank you Tertullian

[@raychelleinjete4024]

This is the future of Africa! Well done. Truly proud of you. Africa must believe in itself

[@njihiafrancis3351]

Great engineering skills. Let's get together and sponsor this talented young man. Together we can do it. Someone out there, touch the button.

[@moham.279]

Oh no. Can’t the government of Kenya do something about this young man???

[@duncanmburu6032]

Moha M. We have a shitty government!! They are all pigs! Only think of themselves but there are a few leaders who care and they are given a hard time by those pigs!

[@mmykredible3313]

With the resources he has I can say that he's doing exceptionally well

Congratulations. This is so great

Programming is powerful. Awesome!

[@tyronewade5788]

You will never see this on Discovery Channel or Western News

[@leemsylazy9353]

This boy will NEVER have a sponsor like wizkid or davido do. Africa believe music and dance are for them and creations and innovations are for other races.

[@tyronewade5788]

@@leemsylazy9353 not true....a lot of African people encourage industrial innovation

Tyrone Wade because he is not the only one, there are literally milliins of americans, chinese and europeans that engage in robotic technology

[@sean3874]

@@peter-johndejong9880 true, it is really all about opportunity, if Africa were to introduce the same education system as China there would literally be a spike in innovation.

You think they care!!?? They are the real githeri media! Non of those westerners really care about that! Its the truth!

I hate that the governments don't fund their young entrepreneurs.

[@duncanmburu6032]

A guy like this, ningempeleka shule then return him home and start projects and create learning institutions to foster such creative minds!! The sad thing is we have a shitty government that does not give a crap about the youth!

[@eddyrandu3127]

The problem is the society we live in. The government can't fund everything. The billionaires we have in the country are selfish, they don't give back. What they do is exploiting. They don't invest in young people
