He is not the top paid robotics engineer..

In 2017, he released the world’s first gaming robot, Mekamon with the special ability to customise the gaming bot to perform personalised functions.
The initial launch of Mekamon sold 500 bots, generating $7.5 million.
Following this feat, Adekunle received from various organisations including London Venture Partners ($10 million) and in the same year, his company, Reach Robotics signed a deal with Apple securing exclusive sales in Apple stores.
In 2018 Adekunle was included on the Forbes Europe 30 Under 30: Technology list.
Evidence for all these..

Not trying to discredit Adekunle
but are u saying he is more paid than Elon musk who keep shunning out robots every day
How many robots assembling cars iPlanes Computers Phones etc are Adekunle products
Stop making Nigeria look stupid,
Terahapix those guys own largest Africa drone
Factory first made in Africa drones to be exported to USA search about those guys
Adekunle is doing well but not anywhere near highest robotics habaaaa when 90% of world richest men and women are investing on robot considered the future

Igbos are still ahead of others.
The highest paid Nigerian robotics engineer in the world is Prof. Bart Nnaji.
He was born in Enugu State, Nigeria and earned a Bachelor of Science degree in physics at St John's University, New York USA.
He then proceeded to the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University for his Masters and PhD in Engineering. He also obtained a Post Doctorate Certificate in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, (MIT).
Nnaji ed the faculty of Engineering at University of Massachusetts, Amherst in 1983. After a few years, he became the Founder and Director of the Automation and Robotics Laboratory at the University. He became a full Professor of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering in 1992.
As a researcher, he focused on three major topics: Computer Aided Design, Robotics and Computer Aided Engineering. Using the knowledge he gained from his research pursuits, he adopted the term "geometric reasoning", the idea that most things we operate have a geometric configuration. He is also credited as one of the innovators of the E-design concept, where product design engineers can work from remote locations collaboratively to design, assemble and test the same product, using the computer and internet/World Wide Web.
Nnaji moved to the University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1996 as ALCOA Foundation Distinguished Professor of Engineering.
He subsequently was appointed the William Kepler Whiteford Professor of Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh, USA, where he also served as the Founding Director of the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) Center for e-Design – a five University-campus NSF Center of Excellence in e-design. He officially left the University and returned to Nigeria in 2007.
An Igbo guy is still the only Nigerian founder and funder of iPost Nigeria, the social media mobile video app in development that has been rated more advanced than YouTube and Tiktok.
Terrahaptix
Co-founded in 2023 by Nathan Nwachukwu and Maxwell Maduka
Has a factory in Abuja, Nigeria
Has drones for crop spraying, ground surveillance, and cargo
Has signed a contract to export drones to South Africa for mining
Has customers in Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya
If you are Igbo and you claim that "Igbos are still ahead of others", who are you ahead of?

One of them even said Barth Nnaji is the highest paid robotics engineer. Nnaji that can hardly operate a mobile phone.
They just can't understand why the Yorubas are great. Instead of asking questions, they wanna deny the fact.

Silas Adekunle is the co-founder of Awarri, an Artificial Intelligence (AI) research lab startup. Alongside his partner, Eniola Edun, Adekunle established Awarri to ensure Africans have representation in the rapidly evolving field of AI.
Awarri was born out of the need to democratise access to AI and robotics technology across the continent. The startup uses MekaMon, an innovative gaming robot, as a tool to inspire young tech enthusiasts and spark interest in STEM fields.
MekaMon is a four-legged robot that moves like a real creature, bringing video games to life through robotics and augmented reality. An app developed alongside MekaMon allowed s to control the robot and enjoy an even richer gaming experience.
Last year, Bosun Tijani, Nigeria’s Minister of Information, Communication, and Digital Economy, announced a partnership with Awarri to build Nigeria’s own large language model (LLM).
“Awarri, along with nonprofit Data.org and two government bodies, will build an LLM trained in five low-resource languages and accented English,” the minister stated.
Before founding Awarri, Adekunle and Edun were more prominent in the gaming industry. Edun had launched Gamr Africa, a startup aimed at advancing gaming culture in Lagos, while Adekunle gained international recognition through Reach Robotics. Reach Robotics achieved a major milestone when it signed a deal with Apple for the distribution of MekaMon.
Awarri later acquired the rights to MekaMon, integrating the robot into Nigerian schools to teach children computer science and coding skills. “MekaMon has been a powerful tool in introducing students to technology in a hands-on and engaging way,” Edun noted.
Continuing its mission of fostering AI talent, Awarri launched a data annotation lab in Ikorodu, Lagos, in November 2023. The lab is designed to serve as an AI talent development hub, particularly for the densely populated suburban area.
In the same year, it launched LangEasy, a platform that allows anyone with a smartphone to help train the model through voice and text inputs. LangEasy gives s sentences to read aloud and asks them to save the audio on the app. The app will help crowdsource data for Awarri’s LLM.
