Isah just got a federal government scholarship to study computer engineering at Baze University in Abuja, the Nigeria capital.
He revealed that he used simple and everyday items to build the robot.
Who awards scholarship to the boy that built robots with cardboards?
Designing the robot took him two years, but he has attracted interest from the authority as he got a scholarship from the national information technology agency (NITDA) to achieve his life ambition.
The young boy also revealed that some of the challenges he faced were his inability to get some of the high-powered materials that he would like to use and that some people didn’t believe in him when he started designing the robot.
Isah added that as far as robots are concerned, this is just his starting point as he planned to build bigger and better robots.
