Meet Richard Turere, a young innovator from Kenya whose inspiring story is going viral! At just 11 years old, he created a game-changing invention to protect farm animals from lion attacks. Observing that lions are afraid of moving lights, Richard built Lion Lights — a solar-powered, AI-powered LED system that flashes in patterns to safely keep predators away.

This eco-friendly technology not only protects livestock but also helps save rare wild animals by reducing human-animal conflict. His smart idea supports sustainable agriculture, climate resilience, and clean energy adoption — all while improving rural security and promoting green innovation.

Today, Lion Lights are used across Africa and beyond, making a real difference in wildlife conservation and smart farming. Richard’s TED Talk gained global attention, turning him into a real-life hero and an icon in the world of renewable energy solutions.

Vital Nzaka, a Congolese inventor and innovator, has made headlines for developing a groundbreaking way to generate electricity using plants, specifically, cassava (manioc), a staple crop in many African countries.
Known locally as Vital Vitium, he began this project to find a sustainable, affordable energy source for communities that lack reliable access to electricity.
His invention centers on a bio-battery, built using simple, locally available materials like cassava starch, lemon-based compounds, salt, and water. These components work together as an electrolyte solution to create a charge when connected with electrodes.
Nzaka’s battery system can generate around 16 to 21 volts of direct current (DC), which is then converted into 220 volts of alternating current (AC) using a basic inverter, enough to power household appliances such as LED lights, radios, fans, and even televisions.
The power output can last up to 12 hours or more, and he claims that with certain setups, it can function for up to two weeks without a recharge. What makes this project especially powerful is its potential to provide eco-friendly, off-grid electricity to rural or underserved areas that rely heavily on expensive or polluting fuel sources.
Beyond its technical value, Nzaka’s work also carries a strong message of self-reliance, sustainability, and innovation from within the African continent. His success proves that with creativity and purpose, transformative technologies can emerge from local challenges. Nzaka continues to refine his invention and hopes to scale it for broader use across Congo and other parts of Africa.

Mtalimanja Rice Plant Owned by Napoleon Dzombe – The Largest in Southern Africa

Located in Nkhotakota, the Mtalimanja Rice Plant is a game-changing investment in Malawi’s agriculture sector.

Owned by renowned entrepreneur and impact investor Napoleon Dzombe, the facility is the largest of its kind in Southern Africa, with a daily milling capacity of 200 tonnes of paddy rice.

Financed entirely through Dzombe’s own equity, this US$17.5 million investment is not just about business, it’s about empowering communities.

Over 7,000 smallholder farmers are part of the initiative, receiving inputs and extension services from Mtalimanja Holdings and selling their rice directly to the plant.
