Baba, you suppose don know say Atiku supporters are the daftest & most shameless things ever na!
They told you someone has just built the longest flyover in Africa & the dumb supporters of the international thief rushed to argue as usual. Shouldn't their brains tell them that even 3rd Mainland Bridge in this same Nigeria is way longer than this & for them to still call this the longest flyover in Africa, then a flyover must be different from a bridge. Those guys are irredeemably daft, man!

Up Ganduje! What people fail to understand is that the money seen in the video given to Ganduje was actually the change that remained from the project money used in building this flyover. If you send your houseboy to the market to buy you something, won't he return change to you?

Good but bad as it was built by foreign engineers. With our Engineering society and professors we can't oversee a contemporary project through. Too bad

If NIGERIAN politician can STEAL money but do meaningful projects that will be beneficiary to everyone do YOU THINK Nigerians will care? Why do you think Kano people don't care when Ganuje was said TO have collected bribe? You all from the east just need to come to Kano OR ASK YOUR BROTHERS not just spreading your hate as we all know you do in that region. the Almajiri Kano is no longer like that. I JUST DONT KNOW WHY YOU PEOPLE FROM THE EAST HATE EVERYONE THAT IS NOT FROM YOUR REGION. INFACT WHAT AM I SAYING SEF YOU PEOPLE HATE EACH OTHER TALK MORE OF OTHER PERSONS

mr oga,

firstly, "overpass" is british not american as you think.

secondly, a "bridge" is a generic term describing structures stretching over a body of water, a valley, or a highway interchange.

thus, a structure stretching over a highway interchange is a particular kind of bridge, in which case there are other two kinds. this particular kind of bridge (over a highway interchange) is known as a "flyover"

as such, the terms "bridge" and "flyover" are not equivalents; the former is a broader term encompassing the latter and others, while the latter is obviously a specific case of the broader former.

in conclusion, your pseudo-analysis above can only be correct iff the "20km" "6th october bridge in Cairo" is also a "flyover" (i.e. a bridge stretching over a highway interchange).

it would have been a different case if this post had simply used the generic term "bridge" instead of a more specific connotation "flyover".
Overpass is American while flyover is British

*i never agreed with you that the Cairo bridge is a flyover. stop imagining yourself to be smart, i wasn't in agreement with you.

*only if it's a "flyover" can it belie the statement in this post.

*3rd mainland bridge in Lagos for e.g. is still not a flyover regardless of what section of it extends to Land.

*you were silent about your claim that "overpass" is american. why?


please stop selling us nonsense!

*I'm not even going to respond to you after this because you are very delusional if you cant understand the simple fact that you are saying the exact same thing i'm saying.

*it is a 6th October bridge is a fly-over

*3rd mainland bridge in Lagos blahaha water water, once again the 6th October bridge in Cairo is over land, over cairo streets for 20 km, you have google map on your computer, go and look at it, why argue and look like a fool.

*I was silent about americans calling it an "overpass"? really, so what do american speak? Chinese, of course america uses the same words as Britain, they speak English, what is your point with that one even?

like I said, your personality is of a person that just likes to argue.

Just so people understand bridges can be flyovers but fly overs can not be bridges. just like fish is a type of food but food can not be a type of fish. in other words a bridge is the main category and fly-over is a sub category.

The 6th October bridge is a bridge and also a fly over at 20 km

show him the video of the work done by your governor and quit growling. Kickbacks are taken by most public office holders in Nigeria. The givers are guilty just as the taker. Jafar Jafar should reveal those who paid so we can begin the process of prosecution since they don't have immunity as Ganduje.

The 6th October bridge is a bridge and also a fly over at 20 km

i could swear that the reason you opened this reply with the notice that you won't reply further is because you understood well that i will expose the lies, spinnings, and re-readings in your damage control, beyond any repair ... lol.

a flyover, like i taught you earlier, is a specific kind of bridge; i.e. one designed to be over a highway interchange.

other kinds of bridge are those designed to be over body(ies) of water, while others yet are those designed to be over valley(s).

in that case, all flyovers are bridges, but not all bridges are flyovers.

i have repeatedly explained the foregoing to you, it still beats me why you don't get it, but you instead insisted that we are saying the same thing. no we are not.


coming to your point that the 6th october Cairo bridge is a bridge over land.

you obviously intended with your statement here to pass off the false impression that this Cairo bridge is NOT an over-water bridge.

of course an over-water bridge will obviously have extensions on land. but that is clearly NOT what you meant when you said it is a bridge over land.

however, the picture of the 6th october Cairo bridge (attached below) shows it to be an over-water bridge, of course with its extensions to land. the bridge actually crosses the river nile twice.

regarding the point about 3rd mainland bridge, that was brought up to demonstrate to you that the fact that it is designed over a water body does not mean it will be restricted to the water body. it is obviously expected that it will naturally have extensions to land.

see attached picture of the 3rd mainland bridge and its land extensions.

i understand where your confusion is coming from. you must have seen the phrase "6th october bridge and flyover" somewhere on the internet without fully grasping its import before coming here.

and you won't fully understand the import of the phrase as long as you fail to realize that a flyover is a specific kind of bridge (i.e. one over a highway interchange), while there are others such as an over-water bridge (often simply called "bridge" ), as well as over-valley bridge.

the 6th october bridge is a hybrid one having an over-water bridge component, yet its land extensions goes, in some places, over highway interchanges.

thus, the whole structure has an over-water bridge component and some of its land extensions serve in some places as a flyover.

it is, therefore, a display of ignorance, for you, to have suggested that the whole 20km structure is in fact a 20km flyover.


regarding your damage control stunt on whether americans speak Chinese, this is simply a laughable, pitiable, desperate, and mute point from you.

but to formally expose you, first you knew well that what i was referring to is not whether the british and americans speak english or chinese.

you understood fully well that i was referring to the british english and the american english comparison which ironically was brought up (though wrongly) by you.

you wrote: "... a Fly-over or in america an overpass, is ..."

smiles ... that was what you said, and i exposed your ignorance by saying that reverse is actually the case; that is, "overpass" is in fact the british form and not american as you ignorantly but (quite surprisngly) confidently assert.
