I'm yoruba guy and I grow up in Ibadan, i was in Ibadan last year December and January, the flyover is below par compare to standard flyover I have seen across the world even in other part of Nigeria. I commend the governor for good work, but I believe he can do better with tax payer money. No tax on this flyover like Lagos, so it is manageable but it will usurp maintenance cost within few years. 3 Likes |

Billyonaire: If that bridge was built in my State, I will call a protest to dismantle it. But this is NOT about Origin Bias Syndrome. This is calling a spade, a spade. That Bridge is like one-lane, no cross-bar, one-way traffic, tarred with charcoal mixed with some advanced cow dung. We all know that it is a shady job done by an inexperienced bunch of laborers. It is NOT worth being seen, its highly shameful. I didn't request for an essay oo, just tell us where your father hails from, simple. |

Gbawe: All these grammar should have been channeled to a Governor who thought he has achieved something by erecting a dilapidating structure. Look at the edges of that so-called Bridge, just look at the cow-dung bitumen, there is intolerable pedestrian sidewalk, there is no railing for balancing, the entire thing looks very unprofessional. I doubt if these bigots have traveled outside their mud denominated communities before contesting for Governorship. This is simply an Amala Bridge. 3 Likes |

lovejo: I'm yoruba guy and I grow up in Ibadan, i was in Ibadan last year December and January, the flyover is below par compare to standard flyover I have seen across the world even in other part of Nigeria. Look, with all due respect, what exactly will you regard as "up to par"? Is the bridge found wanting in terms of structural strength or safety? Is it deficient in it original role of aiding the efficient flow of traffic ? Or do we just declare this bridge not "up to par" because it does not look like the Manhattan bridge or another in Akwa Ibom without any consideration whatsoever for salient engineering considerations that has affected the size, scale and looks of the Bridge? 4 Likes |

Billyonaire: Of course it would be to a fraudster and ignoramus such as yourself. If the Bridge functionally plays it's part to aid overall transport efficiency, then I don't think any grateful end user will care what a petty fraudster, consumed with inferiority complex and petty envy for others, think. 1 Like |

Gbawe:You repeat fraudster for the umpteenth times, Yes I read that. That is character assasination, I am a very very hardworking Nigerian, my "too much" cash-flow are blessings from the Cosmic Energy, Properties, Trucking and the Oil that flows from my Niger Delta; There is no money in fraud anymore, I would have been there and trust me, I would have shared my loot with you. That being said, that Bridge, is not up to par. It is very bad, the worst I have ever seen on the internet. I called it Amala bridge, not cos Amala is Yoruba food, no, far from it, I enjoy Amala when cooked by a Pretty Yoruba model in my condo, but Amala Bridge means, a bridge that looks like cow dung, just like Amala looks like cow dung especially when mixed with "Ewedu".

Gbawe:I'm not here to argue blindly, when i was in Ibadan last year I told my friend this bridge is below standard but manageable. I live in Ibadan for 27 yrs and my house not far from there and that place is where i always pass. The model of the bridge is just a one way motive to ease traffic, that is number one flop , that place need alternative model to cater for those coming from UCH, and those coming from Sabo, but this bridge is plainly design to cater for those coming from Mokola and those coming from Dugbe, that is one major concerned i have regarding the bridge if you said I should not talk about the structure, this bridge is done with labour intensive and not machine intensive. I was surprise to see GP water tank on it in December which indicates type of crude work done on it. 1 Like |

rodeo0070: Precisely. At least not from an engineering perspective. We cannot just reduce every discussion here to whimsical talk ignorant of facts, science and logic. The Walkway bridge below, over the Kakum National Park , Cape Coast was designed and built by Dutch engineers yonks ago. It is still entirely functional today. Is it the best walkway bridge anyone has seen? Absolutely not. Yet can you argue it is not doing what it was designed to do? We should at least attempt to touch on what matter here intelligently and not just limit discussions to shallow bickering.

Good job. Every infrastructural development is an added plus and for those regionaldos, we should welcome development in any part of Nigeria. Those outside our shores looking in to invest do not sectionalize things. As for the appearance and quality, it goes with the circumstance. I prefer functionality. This is the level of our development. |

I think the contract is around 970m Naira, but I can't matched that to the book value because it was awarded directly by the governor to himself and sold it out. 1 Like |

rodeo0070: You may not know this slimeball here but believe his deceptive utterance at your own peril. He is another insecure twit always on SW issues negatively 24/7. Look below at his earlier rant of Westerners having "deep-rooted" jealousy for the "perfectionists" from the ND. Is it not obvious this is another fool suffering from inferiority complex? Can anyone, after reading the ugly, prejudiced comment below think this chap capable of being objective about any SW project when he simplistically thinks South Westerners are jealous of "perfectionist" Niger Delta? He is nothing but an insecure clown. Who is in competition with him and why is he, and others like him, always quick to knock anything positive revealed about the SW only for them to then talk of Akwa Ibom while delivering pictures no one asked for? It is obvious who is really suffering from jealousy. We all know insecure people always brag about themselves to others they feel inferior to. Stop insulting, You Westerners have deep-rooted jealousy for perfectionists from the Niger Delta. That bridge is an eyesore, if you want to see bridges, google Akwa Ibom State. |
