A Nigerian man has shared a video of minibus that was converted from a fuel engine to one using electricity.
The vehicle was parked in front of metre as if it was a petrol filling station. A voice behind the camera encouraged more people to convert their petrol engines to electric.
A charger connected to the metre was inserted into the charging port by the side of the bus. A board in front of the station displayed power was being dispensed at N150 per kilowatt.
Some people gathered around the vehicle charging to film the innovation. In another clip, a man (@charleyman8) explained how much charge the vehicle can take per time, revealing the running time is between seven to eight hours.
