Sixteen years old SS3 student of Community Secondary School, Okpuno, Awka South LGA of Anambra State, Dikanna Onuigbo, has invented the machine that processes bitter leaves (Onugbu).
Onuigbo of Uru-Orji village, Ogidi, Idemili North LGA of Anambra State demonstrated his invention for the Deputy Governor of Anambra State, Dr Nkem Okeke, on Wednesday, September 5, 2018.
