Gov Ambode should,as a matter of urgency construct rails on this bridge running from Ojota to Anthony end of Lagos.Just a little skirmish on that bridge and lots of lives will surely be lost..may God forbid!

This is not proper.

Even as an adult I can't walk on that bridge without fear of falling off the bridge let alone children.

If anything should happen to anybody on that bridge due to the absence of rail, the blood wiil be on this government's neck.

They embark on construction of roads without having a second thought. The mayhem they are causing on Ikeja along- Iyana Ipaja and beyond route is just unnecessary.

This is really scary

More than scary for me.I hate heights! Just imagine having a dizzy person or a pregnant woman go over this "bridge".The weirdest thing to me is that a lot of students of WASIMI SCHOOL (public)pass this route with their hearts in their mouths every weekdays.imagine them fighting on this death trap.

This is not new. All the bridges in Apapa/kiri kiri are like that.

They haven't finished the railroad Fashola started ten centuries ago, u're talking about a bridge with Good roads. Odiegwu.

Nobody ever, ever falls off that bridge because if u're walking on that bridge, means u're Street-wise. Except u're a JJC. Then sorry.

Look well and you'll see the railings have been sawn off by vandals. This is a major problem in Nigeria where people see good grade aluminum on public infrastructure and then they decide it's their's for the taking.

Useless government..i am sure they have used the (hand) rails to bury cables used for Light Up Lagos

The contract for the repairs work would not be publicized now, they would just go to Bourdillion, dobale and show Nairaland (current thread) and Oga would approve straight. sad

Fashola handed over everything good to Ambode ..check the handover notes...Ambode sef cry cry cry

My trekking route during my secondary school days after "embezzling" my transport fare! cheesy

The rails were constantly vandalized and ended up at "kotomalla" scrap yard beside the Ojota new garage.

If anything should happen to anybody on that bridge due to the absence of rail, the blood wiil be on this government's neck.

They embark on construction of roads without having a second thought. The mayhem they are causing on Ikeja along- Iyana Ipaja and beyond route is just unnecessary.
Sis so u too are experiencing wat is happening on those routes, a road that is not even wide enough they are still carving out BRT lane from it, very selfish and useless government
