[quote author=Daniel304 post=81132079][/quote] Lol. But at least the first BRIDGE in the paragraph was correctly spelt. You should have built on that one.

My brother this thing just weak me. Most Nigerian drivers are bunch of illiterates and lack common sense. They don't understand the common law of gravity. How could a long truckload, filled with cement, plus the drive and passenger, think they can climb and cross over a frail bridge that was constructed to cross with legs and bicycle? I am just dumbfounded with their level of stupidity.

The same way a trailer driver destroyed a similar bridge linking anambra villa n imo state some years back... the bridges are meant for light vehicles not lorries ..

But why build a bridge only for light vehicles instead of a full fledged bridge that can carry whatever type of vehicles? We need to get our thoughts right in this country.

Oga so4u, abeg wake up day don break. No be Imo state you dey oooo.

The bridge in question was built in the 50s and 60s. It is one of the few left in modern Nigeria.

Please if anyone knows a community with such bridge post the image in Facebook and tag Engr Etido Inyang.

His sarcasm is clear as day. If this was Imo State you would have accused Okorocha leaving Imo State with this sort of bridge after 8 years and condemn him. That's the much your brain and that of others have been manipulated.

You are merely interpreting for him. But note that every word you. say can be seen or interpreted differently.


So next time he 'sarcast' please tell him to add the 'sm' so our brain can carry.

The main problem of Nigeria is not the government... Its the citizen... When the citizens are corrupt, they elect corrupt leaders...

Some Nigerians are just senseless

Many Nigerians no dey use sense do something. They don't spare a thought for consequences as long as it seems they can fo what they want.

That bridge doesn't even look like it's meant for cars, much less trucks. So not only has the driver ruined the bridge for everyone, he has lost his truck (maybe temporarily). Mumu.

I used that new bridge the last time I visited AKS (Owerri to Uyo). The new bridge was constructed by an indegenous contractor. My surprise is why the driver decided to use the old bridge driving a fully loaded 16 wheeler. Was that path a short cut, perhaps?
