A team of eight brilliant Nigerian girls successfully built a humanoid robot in Sagamu, Ogun state. The girls are students of the Federal Government Girls College, Shagamu, where they built the complicated machine.
A video posted on Twitter by Channel TV shows the girls demonstrating how the machine works. The robot looks tall and has a head, hands and legs and other visible body parts, just like a human being.
The girls explained that the robot is named Okikiola Sagamu and that they faced a lot of challenges in building it.
The robot was made to define what coronavirus means. It also recognises faces and interacts with people. Building the robot took the eight Sagamu girls close to one year as they worked on it without giving up on their dream.
The Okikiola Sagamu robot has made the girls popular and put the school’s name on the tech map.
