Man Who Built “Water Bicycle” Offered A Full Scholarship At His University

The Technical University, Takoradi,Ghana,has awarded scholarship to the young man who built a bicycle that people can ride on water.

Frank Darko, who is already a final year student of Takoradi Technical University simply obtained a full scholarship from the school. This scholarship was not just given because of his talent but in addition on the grounds that he deferred his education as a result of lack of cash.

The distinct innovation grew to be known by the world after BBC decided to function it on their more than a few portals.

The innovation soon went viral on social media, leaving many persons in awe of how the sort of piece was put together.

Darko later revealed that he was inspired by the plight of some students who needed to swim before getting to college. So he invented the “water bicycle”.

He said:
“I was watching a documentary some years back and that i noticed institution kids swimming through a river before going to tuition. So, I told myself, what can i do to help these youngsters and that i began pondering. Sooner or later, I was in a position to provide you with this proposal”.

Nevertheless, his exploits appeared to have rather impressed the hierarchy of the Takoradi Technical institution, who have decided to award him a full scholarship.

A publication on the university’s internet site said the move is geared toward encouraging other pupils to undertake innovative methods of solving societal issues.

The vice chancellor, Professor John Frank Eshun, added that the whole scholarship was to: “motivate Darko to undertake more innovations to solve the challenges within the Ghanaian society and the world at large”.
