OLUENTA1: Are you saying the bridge should not be repaired or the planned repair is phantom? |
Re: FG To Shut Third Mainland Bridge For Six Months by Symorne(m): 5:58pm On Jul 06, 2020 |
A whole six months to repair that? A thing that would take some countries like Japan,China.....just a week to fix. |

yourgistpartner: The headline is simply sensational and the story is short of details. I can tell you authoritatively that the entire bridge won’t be closed to traffic for 6 months. It’s a dual carriage bridge so one of the lanes will be fully closed down for repairs while the other lane will be converted to a single carriage bridge and opened to traffic. Upon completion, the second lane will be shut down for repairs while the already repaired lane will be opened to traffic. 1 Like |

Are they joking or something? Eko bridge has not been in use from the Alaka end for the past 3 months. Costain bridge has not been completed as well causing undue hardships to motorists. Iganmu - Ijora road has crater like pot holes and you want to add 3rd Mainlan to the mix Crazy set of folks with no game plan 1 Like |

huh? The want what happened in 2009 to happen again. Mehnnn the experience then was not nice. As those of us who go to work on the island from mainland suffered. Come and see how all the commercial buses and private car were always jam packed at the oyingbo and carter bridge route. As in... You would leave home at 5am and still won't get to the office at 11 O'clock, just from yaba to ikoyi. Hmm.... and the population was not this much then. I wonder what it would be like this time around. |

It is for good of us, but there should be a pragmatic alternative. The resulting effect of this shutdown can never be overemphasized. |

mployer:Can you confront him and tell him he's useless. Some of you will just be using derogatory words which ought to be condemned. What's your own achievement in life for you to be saying a whole Lagos governor is useless. Do you even think Administration and Governance is a child's play. It's better to criticize constructively than hating your fellow human being unnecessarily.QED. 1 Like |

It's a cultural thing and it's deep rooted in our system. The other day those old men in the house went berserk because Keyamo questioned their rather selfish and personal aggrandizement in the name of "we are working for the people." I'm neither pro APC cause even the SAN's structuring of the whole thing is equally faulty. Politicians are the same. Selfish and pretentious. You want to renovate 3rd Mainland bridge for the people but you don't offer palliatives or care about how these people will cope during the period. "They should just endure (as they always have)." I would rather spend 12 months putting structures and systems in place to make life better for the PEOPLE [during the project], so they don't die before it ends in 6-months! |
