1. The Bridge is NOT Being Constructed by the FGN. It’s a PPP Project which the FGN contributes a tiny fraction.

2.The 2nd Niger Bridge Will Cost about N117 billion.

3. Started in 2012, project was launched in 2014 and should have been completed in 2017, but worked stopped for 31 months by buhari administration in 2015, hence completion date is probably 2019

4. FGN share of the Cost is N30billion. Jonathan through the Sure-P paid N21.2billion (71%) including N7billion for the completion of preparatory work (Phase 1).


5. 38% of the work has been done as at Jan 2015. See pics below.


6 Buhari’s Govt Paid N2billion. They will be paying another N3.05Billion when 2018 budget is approved.

7 Work began in 2017 at the site and about 5%-7% has been completed bring the total completed work to about 43% to 47%


8. In summary Jonathan Govt have paid 71% of FGN share of the cost, While Buhari’s govt has paid 6.1%.

9. Julius Berger, the Major Contractor and Construction company will put Toll Gate on Completion of the Bridge to cover their cost.

10. The Construction Company is Funding the Project and the People using the Bridge will bear the cost via Toll Charges.

The real People building the Bride are Nigerians that will use the Bridge, as they will REPAY the cost to Julius Berger.

Paperwhite:
Yet APC government propaganda on this bridge will make one think that the bridge is being built by their own money & already on ground.

Lol

No mind them

2017 budget has just 5billion for projects in South East

Apart from the money Goodluck deposited, Julius Berger is constructing the bridge with their money.

Compensation alone to community has hit 10billion
