When Ufot Ekon, a Nigerian national, announced breaking a 30-year-old mathematical problem in Japan, it drew a lot of reactions. Then, he was a student at Tokai University, Tokyo, where he solved a mathematical problem that had proven difficult for many mathematicians for over three decades.
This achievement earned him numerous national awards in Japan, and he became the best-graduating student in the history of the University.
According to Africa Archives, Ekong is a decorated electrical electronic engineer who now works and makes cars for automobile giant Nissan.
As of January 2023, Ekong has gone on to have two patented products, including an electric car he built himself.
Ekong holds a Master’s degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering and a doctorate in Power Electronics and Motor drives. Both of these degrees are from Tokai University, where he has the highest score in the institution’s 81 years of existence.
