It is not the contractor's fault, it is a pure natural disaster looming

grin Where is that chap always posting pictures of Anambra civil works versus Kano or Lagos. He should come here and update his portfolio. Apparently all that glitters is.... not in Kano.

This is why Nigeria after all the oil money is still underdeveloped

CORRUPTION

Even the Buhari PTF projects were not immune to this kind of rip-off

.
I happened to travel alot during the PTF era, their roads were solid, enough drugs in most hospitals, new classes built in schools. Though i do not know if the cost were consummerate, i can say the projects i saw were solid/very good.

Residents of Kofar Ruwa area in Kano state where surprised top see their road crack months after it was commissioned. According to reports, the road was commissioned some time ago by governor Umar Ganduje and other dignitaries in the state. A driver got stuck in the cracked road while driving as he left the vehicle there. See pictures below;

That crack didn't just show up , it's been forming overtime and the contractor needs to be prosecuted and jailed for inferior work , if during investigations anyone received a kickback, such person should be arrested and jailed as well

It is possible for cracks to develop months after the road was commissioned. Doesn't look like a tremor caused it. Northern Nigeria is tectonically stable. This is evidence of use of substandard materials in road construction.

Being a geologist, he understands the geology of the area. Takes core samples and analysis it. Advises on the earth materials that should be used for filling before pavement.
