It could be a precursor to an impending natural disaster.

I just passed the place and say it with my eyes. It's true. We went to redemption camp in the morning for SOD lectures and it was all flowing. Upon coming back we saw a crowD gathering on the bridge snapping pics and we were thinking that something terrible was going on. Only to see that the ex river was now like a forest that was recently plowed like d pic and people were running over it and white birds landing. We now looked at the other side and it was still flowing water. It even just rained this morning. Nawah o. I don't even know what to say.

This reminds me of Dilibe Onyeamas book on the difference between a black man and a white man. He said white man comes face to face with a highland or mountain, he immediately starts thinking what is on the other side and how he could conquer the mountain and get to the other side. But a black man will immediately see his enemies at work. They have come to block his progress. He quickly gathers sticks, wood and stone and builds an altar to his God. He will rather dwell there that attempt to climb the mountain.

There must be a scientific explanation to this water receding but my people are already shouting end time, God is marvellous, it's a most amazing thing, bla bla bla

We need a reconfigured approach to life in this jet age century

I don't think Nigerian scientist can explain this, because we are actually waiting till 2018 to produce pencil cheesy

But Eleganza a Nigerian owned company produces Biro so why can't we produce pencils

Don't you think they are more important things for God to do? Like feeding millions of malnourished children in Africa, Stop boko haram and ISIS instead of showing up with one river. Please let's try to reason logically instead of adding religious undertone to every strange occurrence. You are actually mocking god not praising him, This is the best he can do when millions die of poverty and diseases every day?

I have a lot to say to you but I don't have energy to type. Point taken. Please look for someone else.

It is better people stay away from the site. The river could come back with a force that may catch them unaware.

Less than 18hours, it was there this morning and I was there around 4pm this eveing. That site is a mecca of sort now, the crowd there this evening is growing large and large by the second.

Many people doubting this are just been silly. Go there to confirm it nah. It is a strange occurrence and it has never happened there before. I have known the place for over 20years and it has never occurred. I don't think it's supernatural though but it is an event that worths marvelling at. The weed grew within hours and the place was covered and turned to dry land within hours. The other side is flowing

I witnessed it too. It was so amazing. Dry land on one side of the bridge and water flowing on the other side

I can smell danger. people living along the banks should leave the area if they want to be safe. Nature does not need humans but we need Nature. Before the tsunami struck in Indonesia, the people living at the banks noticed that the water receded and they could see the sea bed and even pick sea shells and crabs. Unfortunately their luck ran out as they were washed by a wall of roaring water

This happened as a result of rotation of the earth. The rotation is unnoticeable to human being due to the hardness of the rock beneath the earth surface. However, when there is a slight displacement, the effect could be noticed on the stream which could result in change in flowing of water to another side and possible holes leads to water dry up. The effect could be seen in the future on the building surrounding it with cracks and possible collapsing. However, the water could come back with full force,if there is another displacement. Either way, i smell future danger.

While you praise your god a natural disaster may just be around the corner. I wonder who you will praise(or blame) for that when it happens.
