The brains behind the car is Apostle Dr Kwadwo Safo, the founder and owner of the Kantanka Group of Companies. Dr Kwakwo described as being naturally gifted, a genius, an inventor and a philanthropist.
He has no formal or sophisticated technical background. He imagines, dreams and creates at will. He lives in his own world.

Kiira EV SMACK, the car made in Uganda
This is a car developed in Uganda by Kiira Motors Corporation (KMC), originally the ‘‘KIIRA’’ was developed by students.
This car is a hybrid car which means it combines the benefits of gasoline engines and electric motors and can be configured to obtain different objectives, such as improved fuel economy, increased power, or additional auxiliary power for electronic devices and power tools, according to Mojabuzz.
When it retails, it will set you back US$30 000. This car has the look of slickness. I guess we will try it when it comes. Don’t take my word for it, this is how it looks.
The jury is out there, the success of these cars depends on the uptake by Africans and to some extent the ability of the developers to drum up capital. The Kiira needs US$300 million. Are you ready to invest. — Sources ghanaweb/aada-african-car/ Aljazeera.
