The victims, a middle-aged
man and a little child, allegedly
died due to exhaustion
arising from the long hours
spent in their vehicles while
trying to cross the Niger
Bridge which passage has for
some time now remained a
nightmare to both
transporters and their
passengers.

. It was alleged that the child had cried for a long time due to heat in the vehicle while waiting to cross the bridge before the mother eventually discovered that her child was no longer breathing.



The bewildered mother was said to have become hysterical ./

abdulaz: our commercial buses with no proper ventilation, they'll still jam pack everybody with no space to even stretch ur leg, what a pity. RIP...

MightyThor:

Mod i recommend this guy ^^^^ for a ban for trying to start another tribal stifle here. or give him a warning let put a stop to this nonsense tribal bashing once and for all.

Tony Spike: RIP to the baby.

On a lighter note, I am very certain that a 2-year target of NGN 35 Billion (US$ 220 Million) via a yearly contribution of NGN 3 Billion (US$ 18 million) by each state of the South-East and Delta State can build a befitting Asaba-Onitsha bridge with superb aesthetics for the populace. I really don't know why this is proving so difficult to achieve...

Manchidede:
It was learnt that while the small child died instantly on her mother’s lap at the Bridge, the business man died minutes after crossing the bridge to Onitsha from the North. It was alleged that the child had cried for a long time due to heat in the vehicle while waiting to cross the bridge before the mother eventually discovered that her child was no longer breathing.

The bewildered mother was said to have become hysterical as she burst into tears running helter-skelter when she discovered that her child whom she thought fell asleep was actually dead. The trader was also said to have boarded the vehicle from the North and travelled smoothly until the Asaba end of the Bridge where they spent several hours under the scorching heat in an attempt to cross the Niger Bridge. An eye witness account said that the victim and other passengers with him in the vehicle had already crossed the bridge and was offloading his goods from the vehicle when he suddenly slumped and died.

Erotex: SE & SS dont jus understand nigeria political philosophy.
Once the North & West are done in using oil money to develop their state they will divided Nigeria.

Thats why we must ensure that No Yoruba man or Hausa man becomes president ever again..

Even if we have to use a military coup..

The Federal Government had repeatedly promised in the last 10 years to build a second Niger Bridge to ease traffic congestion on the bridge which is the gateway from the Lagos and other South-west states to the South-east and South-South.

It is impossible because the governors are busy LOOTING. Two South-South governors bought private gets with the people's money. Ex-militant Government Tompolo just bought a private jet recently. Asari Dokuboh has built private University in Benin Republic. Mrs. Dezaini Allison-Madueke has a private jet too, Stella Oduah is busy acquiring the latest automobiles. Jonathan has 10 presidential jets. How will they be able to build infrastructures?
