Where is that Wike?
I thought he said he has fixed all the roads Amaechi abandoned.

Where is 'Mr Project' who devotes his time trading blames and criticizing an ex-governor instead of working.

Wike is just like APC at the Federal level...
Always blaming their predecessor for their failures.

Who says a focused governor can't fix a federal road in his state and get a refund from the Federal Government?

This has nothing to do with Wike. This is the responsibility of federal government of the cesspit called Nigeria. It is a bridge on East-West road supposedly trunk A road. This is one of the examples which cumulates into what are pitifully wrong with Nigeria.

If anybody knows the type of heavylift that passes thru that bridge, it's enough to collapse. Long over due...

I think this has to do more with sustainable development, that bridge has been there for ages, we should have gotten more routes with better bridges... The whole thing is just sad cos I'm even thinking how I will get home this evening for work.

This is the road that leads to:

The Port Harcourt refinery:
PPMC,
NNPC,
Indorama
Intels,
So many oil companies and oil farm yards including Total, Forte, Oando, Tonimas etc
Nafcon..the fertilizer giants
Maersk Nigeria Ltd....leading shipping line in the world
West African Container Terminal WACT otherwise APMT,
PIL....another shipping line,
CMA CGM.....also a shipping line
Bourbon Inter oil
FMC Technologies,
Mobil Unlimited
Bori Polytechnic
Cross River state
Akwa Ibom state...
and well over 300 companies in Onne and Eleme....

Yet the road is in a serious mess!!!! Its has been in a serious mess since Obasanjo era(and most disappointedly GEJ era)

It took this wicked government at the Centre days to fix Abuja runway and Abj-Kaduna road...simply because they are touched. The bridge linking West Nigeria and North is being given prompt attention by Osibanjo....he even rushed down there to see things and make sure it runs.

For us from the East and South-South Nigeria....This is our case!!

Can someone tell me why Nnamdi Kanu and his men wont be getting more sympathizers.

Good night Nigeria truly.

This road was built by RCC under the Yaradua/Jonathan regime.

It's really a pitiful sight when a road that has not even been commissioned has started falling apart even before the contractor has left the site. grin

Sorry you are wrong. That bridge has been there since I cannot remember when.. It was only asphalt overlay that was done during Yaradua/Goodluck tenure. I think what we are lacking is still the maintenance culture especially Concrete repairs. Its a pity and its a very busy road.

That road has served for a longer time than you can imagine..... Heavy trucks pass on it daily.... It was expected. The problem is that we don't practice preventive maintenance in Nigeria.

Do you go on to fix federal roads in Nigeria without the Federal government's approval or a mutual agreement?

Structural failure . Blame the Engineers and the contractors .
Thats not a structural failure bro,that collapse was caused by erosion,am very familiar with that route ....it's just a few metre from ecobank.
If the bridge deck or peirs collapse then u can say structural.
That road is designed as a flexible pavement,u don't expect it to withstand erosion.

God bless
Re: Aleto Eleme Bridge On East West Road Collapses (Photos) by ERICOPLC(m): 8:25pm On Aug 10, 2017
This bridge is carrying trafic beyond it.
Recall that when EPCL was under construction, it was confirmed that the bridge is weak and can't carry the weight of Ethylene splilter, hence the construction of the new Bridge by left. However we thank God no live was lost.

Structural failure refers to the loss of structural integrity, or the loss of load -carrying capacity in either a structural component, or the structure itself. Structural failure is initiated when a material is stressed beyond its strength limit, causing fracture or excessive deformations.

Erosion happens to be the cause of that bridge's structural deformation. The reason i blamed the engineers is that they did not consider the erosion factor properly.
