During ETF 2026, the students of Enugu Smart Green School took the stage and owned it!
From their different campuses, these young innovators showcased projects built from skills in robotics, AI, mechatronics, coding, and even C++ — introduced as early as Primary 4.
On display were prototypes like an automatic solar streetlight powered by sensors, customized 3D-printed power banks, drone applications for agriculture and security, and clean-energy concepts designed with long-term sustainability in mind.
It's clear that innovation isn’t about expensive materials but about ideas, creativity, and the confidence to build. Enugu’s future isn’t waiting. It’s already in the hands of its youngest problem solvers.
