The 6th edition of Nigerian universities research
and development exhibition ended innovatively as University of Uyo took the overall first position,
followed by Nnamdi Azikiwe university, Awka. People couldn’t believe the result.

According to Margaret Heffernan, for good ideas and true
innovation, you need human interaction, conflict, argument, debate.
Without lies and speaking honestly, everybody including myself was marveled by the outcome. Never thought Uniuyo will win that easily.
Seeing other schools/universities presenting manufactured drones, formula one bike, machine,
and rockets. Covenant University also came well prepared with their saloon

Nonetheless, what all this schools fail to comprehend is the caption of the event, which was and should be based on
innovative technology and designs. A new research that will or is intended to
solve a major environmental or societal problem. What has not been done
before. Innovation
distinguishes between a leader and a follower, according to Steve jobs.

For the 6th edition of Nigerian universities
research and development fair, it was filled with sparkling moments, and for
university of uyo team to turn out first
after series of calamity; which started with massive wind storm that pulled the
canopy and secondly, the charger for the 3D printer got burned during the
process of testing. I ionically recommend the entire team for their hardwork
and doggedness despite the short notice and pray that the strong will for
innovation takes the research team to a greater level.

I love
this quote from Steve Jobs “Innovation has nothing to do with how many R
& D dollars you have. When Apple came up with the Mac, IBM was spending at
least 100 times more on R & D. It’s not about money. It’s about the people
you have, how you’re led, and how much you get it”.
Without retraction, this event made so many people to
believe and recognize that the lessons learned from the dark days at
Alibaba are those you’ve got to make your team have value, innovation, and
vision.

Also, if you don’t give up, you still have a chance. And, when you are
small, you have to be very focused and rely on your brain, not your strength.
