Please quote just one person who said that Jonathan has paid for the bridge if you are not a liar like Fashola, Lai Mohammed, Buhari and all APC supporters.
I hope that you are not a liar and you will quickly share just one quote.
Thanks

STOP THE DAMN PROJECT!!!

u are just a dog that should be licking afonja asses or drinking aboki pee

Only thing I want to hear is "it's completed and ready for traffic"...

All this talk of funding sources and promises of completion is just 2019 tactics... not interested at all... should they get re-elected, we will know we are on a long thing and that bridge will remain uncompleted for another 4 years.

Kobicove:
They want to use this as bait to get votes from the South East in the 2019 elections

Keep quite nobody need your votes. Your hatred will not prevent PMB from doing his job. You didnt vote for him in 2015, yet he won. so who told You he need it now?

Super Minister of darkness and lies
The bridge will be completed in five years by current estimates.
Budgets are approved each year.
How can Fashola, a SAN talk about funding assured over the five years?
Maybe he is SAN but he is not sane

I believe he mentioned foreseeable future.

So since you know that budget is approved each year, why do you think a minister who has to defend a budget does not know that, and foreseeable future refers to that which is already approved for the fiscal year?

Or is approved budget for a fiscal year not a foreseeable future with guaranteed funds to prevent a stoppage of project execution?

Pls were exactly is this second niger bridge located @ cos me i hve been driving through dat route anytime im leaving asaba,is it close to first niger bridge,pls i need an answer fellow nairalanders.

The Minister of Works, Power and Housing, Mr Babatunde Fashola, has said that the Federal Government has put in place workable funding mechanism, to ensure the Second Niger Bridge is completed.

Fashola stated this on Saturday, when he visited the site of the project at Oko near Asaba in Delta state.

The former Lagos Governor said the modified tax credit policy, the Sukuk Intervention Fund and the Presidential Infrastructural Fund, among others, were aimed at funding infrastructure projects that would make the country globally competitive.

“By my assessment, the piling work is now about 50 per cent.

“At the time I resumed work at the ministry, only the bridge was designed and work had stopped, but because of the commitment of the president, work has commenced.


“For the foreseeable future, I don’t see any reason why work will stop again because funding has been provided,” Fashola said.

We say the military was corrupt but they built some monumental projects that wasnt tolled. This bridge would be tolled just lik ikoyi bridge. Who we offend self

All FG's roads will now be tolled
I prefer smooth roads that are tolled to abandoned death traps

http://www.punchng.com/new-toll-gates-to-be-located-at-old-spots-fashola/

The Federal Government has announced that it has concluded plans to re-introduce tolls on major highways across the country.

The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola (SAN), while appearing before the Senate Commitee on Federal Roads Maintenance Agency on Thursday, said 38 points had been identified in the first phase of the re-introduction.

How long did it take Russia to build the Crimea bridge, every campaigns around the south east revolves around this 'classic' bridge

Work stopped when our confused president ran as a sole administrator for six months. Some of us witnessed the initial work by the Jonathan administration which seemed aimed at the 2015 elections. But on the whole it's good that work is back as earlier designed by the government. I say government because it is a continuity not minding the administration.

stop speculating and give a definite dateas deadline when the bridge will be completed. . i just hope the FG matches words with action!

If you are going to the head bridge from Asaba look to your right. The distance from that point may be about two kilometers.

When people are determined to see a project through, there are less talks and few stories to tell. For example the payments for the Tucana fighter jets at very huge costs, the renovation of NAIA Abuja, completion of 3rd inland bridge just to mention a few.

This 2nd Niger bridge has become a campaign tool for various political parties especially this APC. They lack the political Will to see to its completion. Yet the myopic ones cannot see far to see the uncertainty in the minister's political comments.

The eastern states and their southern counterparts should take their destinies in their hands. Get a joint agreement with a foreign firm to build that bridge by way of concessioning. This government is irresponsible they cannot take responsibility for anything other than blame others for their inefficiency.

The moment the states take it up just watch how the FG will jump in the conclusion to take the glory. They are very terrible indeed.

I don't know what the govt is doing for us. We don't have good roads, no well funded school , no steady electricity light, no good water system, no good hospital, no security, no good economy. Just name it.

The people provide their own light by way of generators, they pay heavily to private schools for a bit of quality education, they buy satchet or bottled water in the absence of good pipe borne water, they provide their own security, they do all for themselves. The basic essence of government is lacking and then I wonder what the hell those parading themselves shamelessly as leaders are doing.
In normal societies the people will stand up in civil protest against a shambolic system but here I don't understand.
How can a people sit back and watch people loot tax payers money without using it to build basic infrastructure like roads, hospitals, schools etc. We are our own problems, yes the people.
It's not the leaders, it's the people who allow and tolerate bad and ineffectual leaders to feed on tax payers funds.

maybe you don't know that you people are not relevant to APC political equation. if all the ipob, including waking your ancestors from the grave to come and vote against Buhari, he will still win. so let your AMADIOHA return back to you.

Mr man that knows what people do and don't deserve, what have the government done in other to curb those attacks and shame those who "celebrate" the bad happenings? instead they are defending the killers. The joke is on you. Think better before posting.

You are just angling for Igbo votes with speeches. We are pragmatic and understand the limits of political promises. You will only and always get my vote when the job is fully done!
