Floods Carry Vehicles In Niger State After Heavy Rain.. by BoneBlogger(m): 7:34pm On Aug 20, 2018
The residents of Niger state are calling on the state and federal government to come to their aid over the bad state of Karamin-rami Bridge in Mashegu local government area of Niger State, which has worsened their plight.

According to reports, the road is too bad, from Kontagora region to Makera area of Niger State as some vehicles including heavy duty trucks were carried away by raging floods after being submerged following a heavy downpour. 

Some motorists had to hold their vehicles with ropes in order not to be carried by the massive floods. 

Five months ago, Niger state government awarded a N56 million contract for the re-construction of a collapsed bridge along Kontagora/Makera road.

The bridge collapsed in 2017 as a result of heavy rainfall in Karamin Rami Village of Mashegu Local Government Area of the state.

Gov. Abubakar Bello of Niger, while inspecting the collapsed bridge, said that re-construction of the bridge was part of the state government’s intervention to provide a temporary bridge to ease movement of road users.

He explained that the collapsed bridge was located on a federal road that needed immediate rehabilitation due to its economic advantage to the people of the state.

It's so sad to see


Most disasters in Nigeria are man Made

For example in kaduna the governor started drainage and left it half way leading to even worse blockage of the gutters... Now it's an obstruction to free flowing water...

Some areas are experiencing some degrees of flooding for the first time ever... I am too sure after the rains nothing will be done.... Next year Boom! It'll turn to something terrible then we'll start shouting God why


Why Nigeria? Why?

Too bad. They government won't do anything about the road now, when people die as a result of the road, they will start accepting condolence visits. Things are really too bad in this country.

OP, why not type your headline in your language or vernacular so someone with English fluency can translate for the folks on this site. One really has to re-learn what I wouldn't describe as English on NL these days. Outcome of a dysfunctional national educational system.

Wise people they refused to build drainage now they have lost farm lands, houses, vehicles and possibly lives worth way more than that drainage that one man may have pocketed and every body kept quite so let them suffer it.
