19-year-old Ghanaian student builds search engine to rival Google and YouTube

19 yrs old Gabriel Opare a self taught programmer builds a video search engine that he believes could rival Google and YouTube.

Mudclo the name of the search engine built by the young programmer is a free search engine for videos. Mudclo discovers and streams videos from the different locations on the internet all in one place.
Gabriel believes that his business is good enough and that it can scale globally. He says it is a legitimate point to say that YouTube is a video hosting website, but they are two different entities.
“While YouTube is a video hosting website, Cloud combines the power of YouTube and two other video hosting websites in order to create Mudclo.
 Mudclo’s users most popular searches include adverts, music videos and amateur content.Gabriel takes inspiration from other Ghanaians , restless and eager to build businesses at a young age on a continent where opportunities are limited and unemployment is rife.
Mudclo has already caught the attention of some of the world’s big tech companies, including more established video hosting sites although there is some work to be done on Mudclo to fix bugs, boost the features and visual experiences it offers users.
