N117 Billion 2nd Niger Bridge by Larufa(m): 3:51am On Dec 20, 2014
The 2nd Niger Bridge is going to cost N117 billion for a 1.5 km bridge while the 1.3 km Lekki-Ikoyi suspension Bridge cost only N29 billion naira.

Simple arithmetic:

1.3 km = N29 billion
1.9 km = N42 billion

Interpolating and extrapolating 100% (Variation, inflation, compensation), the total cost = N84 billion.



Naija dey make me laugh 000000.

Illiteracy is bad! How can you compare Lekki bridge with 2nd Niger Bridge? What is the dead-weight capacity of Lekki bridge? Can it carry three trailer loaded with bitumen? Hypocrisy run amock.

The second Niger bridge is a 12-kilometre bridge plus another 28 kilometres of access road, so 40 kilometres construction. A bridge that would allows ships to pass underneath and would be over 8 lanes? Guy delete the thread before people finish you here

Young man don't be deceived, did you say Chinese Companies? Tell me the longest bridge in the world located in China was built by Julius Berger? It was a Chinese company.
Think like an adult, the price is 300% inflated.
In governance we need to shun party affiliation, and talk about our common interest.

leave the Op , i think he sleeps in a goat pen thats why he reasons like one
after the so called Progressive party built a 29billion naira bridge and some few kilometers of road, what did they do?
they tolled it.
but these APC goons on nairaland turn a blind eye to that and are more bothered about a bridge in the SE than the robbery tinubu is running under their nose
