Foreign company flies Nigerian man who makes drones to Finland for immediate employment.

The talents of a young Nigerian man have made a way for him, as a foreign company has expressed interest in him as well as recruited him. Ignatius Asabor, a Nigerian man who builds unique drones out of materials he finds locally, was flown to Finland by a firm called Radai Limited and hired by the same company. Asabor is a Nigerian engineer who self-taught himself how to make agricultural drones.

The Managing Director of the Finland-based firm, Mr. Ari Saartenoja, announced the news on Linkedin and expressed his joy at having Asabor work for him. Mr Ari posted a photo of Ignatius on LinkedIn shortly after he landed in Finland, writing, “Ignatius Asabor, young Nigerian drone talent has just arrived in Finland, Oulu.” In the future, Ignatius will bolster Radai’s survey team by bringing more international expertise to the table. “Welcome to the Radai Team, Ignatius Asabor.”

Ignatius also used LinkedIn to upload a photo of himself arriving at Oulu, Finland, with the caption “Arrived in Oulu city.” Asabor’s final project before leaving the nation is a 65-inch wind span training plane converted to a crop duster, which he claims is utilized in farming and crop dusting. Nigerians have praised the firm and the young prodigy across all social media platforms, encouraging him to stay focused on his objective and to be a good ambassador for the country.

 

 

In 2011, the company released the first academic prototypes of their measurement technique. Mineral exploration, geological mapping, environmental monitoring, and conductivity mapping are just a few of the uses for Radai services. Radai’s proprietary software, RadaiPros – a magnetic data processing tool, RadaiView – a magnetic UAV data viewer, and RadaiPath – a UAV waypoint editor, all provide high-quality data to end-users.
