This is how government of Nigeria killed the dreams of Dr.Ezekiel Izuogu through their strategic policy of hate syndrome. Dr.Ezekiel Izuogu: How the Izuogu Z- ... 600 dream was destroyed by Nigerian government simple because he is an Igbo man. In 1997, a brilliant Igbo Electrical Engineer and Lecturer at the Federal polytechnic Nekede, Dr. Ezekiel Izuogu designed and developed the Izuogu Z-600, the first African indigenous manufactured car. The car was described by the BBC as 'the African dream machine' as 90% of its parts were sourced locally. At a projected sales cost of $2000 dollars, it would have taken the world by storm and become the cheapest and most affordable car on earth. With mass production planned under Izuogu Motors plant in Naze owerri, the prospects of an industrial revolution in Igbo land and Nigeria, was in the making. The car was equipped with self made 1.8L four cylinder engine that got 18mpg and allowed the car to achieve a top speed of 140 km/h. Fr
