Looking at that bridge it is obvious that the collapse was a gradual process not sudden and nobody cares. Nigerians will be in church and mosque praying all day and all night for God to prevent accident and sudden death for them instead of them to carry sticks and cutlasses to go and meet some people who left death traps on the road for them. Nonsense country

Ewu, when Kwara is in a bad light, it is Ewedu. When it is in good light, it is the North.

The present Kwara State government should not be blamed on this. Seriously, Kwara has been mismanaged by the previous government.

Yes... but the New Government, must be aware of the gradual break of the bridge in that location and reconstruct it, than making it a dead trap.

The construction company should be sued simple.

Even if he did it 30yrs ago or if na erosion carry bridge u go still hold the contractor
Maybe it needed maintenance , which is no longer the fault of contractor

Can't the spirit of victims of this neglect of infrastructure haunt those in charge of building it. Do they tie them up in the spirit

Possibly they may be among those that always shout like "is he the first person to steal government money?, What about Mr A, why not go for Mr. B first.........

Nigeria the giant of Africa indeed. sad sad

Chaii.....Money meant to built that bridge is standing under a carport in Abuja as Exotic car.......
Na saraki destroy that kwara...
Could you believe that ilorin only has one quality bridge...the one at post office...
Saraki didn't do a thing in that state than that bridge...even that bridge is not even half of the one at Ado ekiti..or oke-ilewo abk
A bridge that was financially budgeted to start from maraba junction and end at challenge junction...he took it from post office and ended it in front of unity bank...I was told the then president yaradua who was supposed to commission it left unimpressed..
May their souls rest in peace

Bike take me through this bridge yesterday around 8pm in the night.. Truly, the bridge is getting weaker everyday before it collapsed, and the government is not even doing anything about it... Now that it has killed four people, i hope they are now satisfied.... R.I.P to the dead...

This can not happen in south west
Re: Bridge Collapses In Kwara After Heavy Rainfall, Four Feared Dead by shiwex: 7:31pm On Jun 14, 2020
What we see here is result of lack of maintenance, this is not the result of heavy rainfall in a day....You can see properly that this was a danger to happen, The whole structure looks to be in dire need of replacement.

Sad politicians who the youths are meant to hold accountable for infrastructure blame thier misfortune on Instagram big boys.

Before you quote me this road and bridge is substandard, therefore the accident is avoidable if the right materials are being used.

Instagram War Lord actions can't lead to something fatal like this, let the hopeless Youths channel thier aggression to these politicians to save more lives in Nigeria.

You just said my mind
Oil dey ur head
That why we will never develop as a Nation instead the youth will hold politicians accountable they will prefer attacking big boy on IG whether his legit or not
