Covid-19: Federal Polytechnic Nekede, invents hand washing machine


Federal Polytechnic Nekede, Owerri, has invented an automated hand washing foot pedal  machine.

As part of their measures in combating the fast spread of the dreaded coronavirus disease, the machine was built so that it can be operated using the foot instead of the hand. With your foot applied on the pedal, you can dispense water and liquid soap while washing your hands.

The machine is currently in use by the school management and will be extended to the students for use as soon as the covid-19 luckdown is over.
