A Nigerian genius in Borno by name Mustapha Gajibo converts buses that run on petrol to full electric.

The charging time for full charge is about 35 minutes. He also incorporates solar power by adding photovoltaic panels to increase the range of the buses. 

The conversions are not limited to buses but also tricycles.
