52 billion naira for this wonder, but here in Nigeria, people claim they use that amount for a stretch of miserable road without drainage, design nor barrier.

This country agwugo finally.

So many abandoned bridges

abike12:
oh wow. looks scary

babe, I will take you there and other amazing places in the world

soberdrunk:
See what they built with 'ordinary' "52 billion" that isn't enough for some politicians to do Sallah........ > You will see some Nigerian projects, when you hear the cost even though you are not an engineer you can tell it's daylight robbery..... >

and to think that x3 + of that amount is being budgeted for a mere election boggles my mind.

wow

And they've been building ordinary mile 2 badagry highway since 2008 and have not even reached half of the job. Sad. Just sad.

Greyworld:


You dont embezzle a nations wealth and live... its an abormination.

This is what Nigeria needs to enforce and stop hiding behind democracy.

Once they start doing this, accused politicians won't come to court in wheelchair or stretcher. You need tough laws to survive in Nigeria

Wow! What a masterpiece.

if na Nigeria, this project for reach 100 of billions and 10year to complete

Greyworld:
Some ignorant folks still think China is "fake"
They have gotten thus far by enforcing certain stringent n stiff penalties to offences. (Offences we consider normal here)

You dont embezzle a nations wealth and live... its an abormination.

In Nigeria, certain people will shout 'witch-hunt' once the government invites alleged corrupt peeps for questioning. Why? Because corruption favours them individually.

Can someone pls remind me the cost of river Niger bridge? Am confused just 54billion naira?

MightySparrow:
Chinese China, alll these oyinbo sha! where are black race and arabs?

they are busy cramming quoran to learn how to wipe out those who don't believe in the holy prophet (saw) and planning which airport or marketplace to bomb in order to go to paradise

Same bridge will take us eternity and trillions to build here, Nigeria I hail thee

After the Japanese, the Chinese are the most humble, hardworking, and nationalistic set of people. Why will they not succeed as a nation.

chinese people can over do abeg

Oh boy!!!

My concern is the cost for bridge construction in Nigeria. Can u imagine just #52b for bridge of that nature and overhead bridges in Nigeria goes for more than that. There is God ooooo.

I Wish my mother had married a Chinese man!

This Beipanjiang Bridge Duge near Liupanshui in China is the world’s highest bridge. It was opened in December 29 2016 and spans 1.34 km (0.83 miles) between Xuanwei city in Yunnan province and Shuicheng county in Guizhou province.





It stands 1,854 feet (565 meters) above the Beipan River, the height of a 200-story building, and connects two mountainous regions in the country.

The four-lane bridge was built at the cost £114million (₦52billion in Naira) and took atleast 1,000 engineers and technician​ over 3years to complete .

The Beipanjiang bridge was built to shorten the journey from Liupanshui to Xuianwei from about five hours drive to about one hour.





China is also home to the Sidu River Bridge and the Puli Bridge,the worlds second and third highest bridges respectively.

The Beipanjiang is the highest rather than the tallest bridge. The 1,125 feet Millau Viaduct cable-stayed bridge in France is the world's tallest bridge.

Tallest bridge is measured by the height of the structure including the top of the bridge tower while the highest bridge measures the distance from the bridge deck to the ground.

How about driving on a bridge with a height equivalent to a 200-storey building?

Are you brave enough to look at the valley 565meters below the World’s Highest Bridge?
