Oyekunle Michael, a Nigerian man who works as a bike rider (Okada) to make a living, has made an incredible invention. He has created a noiseless generator that does not require any fuel to run.
Michael, who hails from Oyo state and has a degree in computer science from Interlink Polytechnic, is no stranger to innovation. He has previously come up with several other inventions.
However, his latest invention was not an easy feat. Michael revealed that he had made over 15 attempts before finally getting it right in 2022. The noiseless generator has the potential to revolutionize the way power is generated and used in Nigeria, where the supply of electricity is often unreliable.

The invention has generated a lot of interest on social media, with many people praising Michael for his ingenuity and resourcefulness. Some have also called on the Nigerian government to provide him with support and funding to further develop his invention and bring it to market.
Michael’s story is an inspiration to many, as it shows that innovation and progress can come from the most unexpected places, and that with hard work and determination, anyone can make a difference in their community and beyond.
In a video that has been circulating online, Oyekunle Michael demonstrated the use of his noiseless generator invention, which he had been working on for 13 years due to financial limitations.
Michael, who works as a bike rider to make ends meet, revealed in an exclusive interview with Legit ng that his generator is eco-friendly and easy to use. He added that it requires less maintenance than traditional generators and is strong, making it a reliable source of power.
The noiseless generator is a game-changer in Nigeria, where the supply of electricity is often erratic and unreliable. Michael’s invention has the potential to provide a sustainable and affordable source of power for households and small businesses.
Many Nigerians have taken to social media to express their admiration for Michael’s ingenuity and determination. Some have called on the government to provide him with the necessary support and funding to bring his invention to the market and help him realize his full potential.
Michael’s story is a testament to the fact that innovation and progress can come from anyone, regardless of their background or circumstances. With hard work and perseverance, anyone can make a difference in their community and contribute to the greater good.
In his words, “It’s very effective just like normal petrol and diesel generator. The one I built now has 900 watts capacity of the ‘I Better Pass My Neighbor’ gen and can power home appliances like TVs, fan bulbs, depending on size. I can build from 1kva up to 20kva to power a whole building and offices, with help and support.”
Michael said it all started about 13 years ago when his parents separated. He narrated, “It all started 13 years ago. My mum and dad got separated and things becomes hard for me and my mum. She had to send me to Ibadan to stay with my dad’s elder brother in a very remote area.”
“We trekked miles to go to school. No light, to read, iron clothes, watch movies and all. People that managed to on gen then, trek miles to get fuel. I thought of building a generator that will work without fuel 247 so everyone can have a steady alternative power supply. I told my physics teacher about it and he said it’s possible if I can build my engine to drive the alternator.”
“I started working on it. I told my guardian and he liked the idea but there weren’t funds to assist me in making one as he is a civil servant and a farmer.”
“From my earnings, I finance my ND in computer science and still saved money to build a prototype of the fuelless generator. I had over 15 failed experiments before I finally got it right last year 2022, and spent close to 250k to get it done aside from those failed experiments.”
He is now seeking support to mass produce the generator and can do even bigger capacity generators if money is provided.
