The 5th longest suspension bridge in Africa – has recently been unveiled in Uganda. President Yoweri Museveni commissioned the new bridge on Wednesday.

The bridge named the “New Nile Bridge” spans 525m. It is located in the town of Jinja and stretches across the source of the River Nile.

The bridge is the second of its kind in East Africa after Tanzania’s Kigamboni Bridge which spans 680m. It is also the fifth longest cable-stayed bridge in Africa.

The bridge, which cost $112million, was funded by the Japanese International Cooperation Agency (JICA).

The government of Japan financed 80% as a loan of US$100 million at an annual interest rate of 0.01%, repayable in 10 years but extendable to 40 years.

According to the Uganda President, the bridge was designed to last for 120 years.

The beautifully engineered and magnificent structure is set to replace the old Nalubaale Bridge, which was constructed by the British in 1954.

What do you mean by ordinary? Uganda got their sovereignty 9th October, 1962. Educational system is better organized without strike and related interruption as in Nigeria. The country is not rich but the people are happy with themselves. Crime is less as movements in the town last's for 24hrs.

Rossikki:


Oh sure..Uganda is heaven on earth, and Nigeria is hell.

You Nigerians and your inferiority complex. I bet you, with your fat big mouth, you could not live for one week in Uganda. Stupid, self hating people. Ask yourselves how many roads there are in Uganda? How many cities? Do you know I have a Ugandan friend who still can't believe we visit our villages for christmas in Nigeria. He said in Uganda, the villages are desolate, with zero facilities, no markets, nothing. Maybe afew aid trucks from UNICEF to feed the old people there. Just like those poor villages you see on CNN. He said once you manage to leave your village in Uganda, it's goodbye for ever. Nobody goes back, or builds their homes there etc. In Nigerian villages these days you have banks, electricity, multiple markets and shops filled with goods from all over the world. Until you people start to appreciate what you have in Nigeria, you will never make progress.

Your friend told you. I have spent straight 6months in Uganda working on Nestle project.

The poor understanding existing in your generation didn't allow to balance your coconut dead brains from realities & emphasis. I compared the interruptions in Nigeria school system and security. Ugandan independence, 9th October,1962. I didn't mention infrastructures. While not address the subject matter? Although Nigeria is also dead in infrastructure but not to compare with Uganda.

Rossikki:


He still knows more than you. He was born and bred there. You were just a visitor who led a pampered life there available to only a few Ugandans. Being a dumb Nigerian with inferiority complex, you automatically assumed the good life you led there was the norm for all Ugandans, making it ''better than Nigeria''. Dumbo.


Oga defend Nigeria with one good projects not over priced tollgate roads ooo


Shut your stupid dumb mouth. How many universities are there in Uganda, with your 'better organized'' GARBAGE? When you have only one or two universities built for the tiny elite minority, why won't it be organised? When you have only one city in the entire country, why won't it be organised? Why won't it be 'safe'? Where else would the police go, but Kampala? You went to live a pampered life there for six months working for Nestle. How many Ugandans could live that life you led there? Peabrain. Keep hating yourselves and your country. Is that not why outsiders treat you people like trash, when they know you are steeped in inferiority complex and self loathing? When you hate yourselves and your country, and think everyone is better than you, why would anyone treat you with respect? Mumu people. Abeg fck off my face jare. Worthless.

Afonja007:
the way you people think still amaze me so without fashola the best governor in world Ugandans will not build suspension bridge? How much did fashola borrowed them for the bridge?did he also sent Julius Berger to them?in amenities Nigeria still far we enjoy nothing in Nigeria apart from New tecno or new infinix phones

Good development, driving to Kalangala was very difficult, it has to be by ferry, once you miss it you would have to wait for over 2 hours before you can cross, if you miss the last trip of the day, then you have to wait till the next day.

Not bad, the places I visited have linear settlements, they have good roads though, the capital Kampala is very beautiful, with alert security at all hotels due to the activities of Islamic terrorist groups. The expat population (Indians and Chinese) is very high, most of them in Agro-allied.
Night life too is superb, dominated by foreigners.
Poverty rate is high though, but for foreign investments in Agriculture which employs most of the villagers. I worked briefly with a tea, sugar and tobacco plantation there.

grandstar:


Thanks for your response

Is there any business you think will be lucrative there?

SarkinYarki:


There is no Suspension Bridge in Nigeria so get your facts right, the Lekki IKOYI link bridge is not a suspension bridge but a cable stay bridge and they are two different things and the suspension bridge is more complex and difficult to build

yeyerolling:
This is a suspension bridge not the scam in lekki ikoyi. Cant see a toll gate der too. Shame on nigeria

godfatherx:


Very large scale agriculture.
Uganda is a landlocked country, surrounded by war torn countries like South Sudan, DR Congo, Rwanda and co. The dictator Museveni has good grips of the nation. Business only thrive when his close circle are part of it. And since export of agro product to neighbouring countries is the major source of Forex, that's the only business foreigners do.
They supply tobacco, tea, sugar, vegatable oil, soap etc even to Kenya &Tanzania & war ravaged countries around them
