GamalNasser: Borini Prono is not a briefcase construction company. They have been in Nigeria since the mid 70's and since the Abacha PTF era have been alloted Lagos state as their catchment area for Federal B Grade Works. They know that bridge and all the aporoaches, adjoining linkages all the way from Mile 2/Apapa/Oshodi like the back of their palms. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Nigerian and black African leaders are all mad and wicked! 3rd Mainland Bridge is tired, weak and due for artificial collapse, what a honorable government ought to do is to construct alternative bridge and destroy this death trap of a bridge and erect an entirely new Bridge. The life span of a bridge is 50 years on a normal usage, but this is Nigeria, don't wait till it is 50 years old before it swallows innocent people's lives and assets crossing the bridge. Also, River Niger bridge between Asaba and Onitsha ought to have been collapsed by government so many years ago. Until it collapses and kill people, devilish Nigerian government controlled by northern Muslim cultists won't bath an eyelid 1 Like 1 Share |

UDUJ: We have zero safety standards. Honestly these are basic things that are standard procedures and I don't know why we believe we can always cut corners around such. You would see people climbing high rise building without harness. Maybe because there aren't claims or lawsuits for injuries at work. Maybe if these companies have paid out Billions in fines for work place safety incidents they would take a 10k safety boot much more importantly. 2 Likes |

tmcleo2k2: Yes sir, bridges are built in sections around a specific cluster of piers. It is not uncommon for some of these clusters to settle/subside unevenly over time leading to a misalignment of various sections. The expansion joints are meant not only to bridge the gap between sections but to compensate for the misalignment to make for a smooth ride. Unfortunately this has elastic limits and after a while the joints fail. The faster the misalignment the sooner the joints will fail. It is obvious the pile clusters buried deep into the lagoon are yielding bit by bit. Maintenance going forward is bound to be more frequent as the bridge ages viz increased traffic. The bridge presently is like asking a 45 year old man to give you 60 pushups in a minute. He will need a few more breaks. 5 Likes |

Hmmm.....was never good at math and estimation.... just curious.... if a construction company takes 6 months to replace 14 expansion joints on bridge ..... how long will it take to construct the bridge? Looking at the pix.... forget safety... one air compressor machine.... I guess to power the jackhammer.... but the guy using the feed to clear debris. Now we know why it will take 6 months.... minimum. |

GamalNasser:You people think it's easy to form construction company? You go and buy all the high tech tools and keep in your storage abi? And you staff will not steal the tools? in these hard times? Just encourage them. The fact that Westerners or Chinese can do a better job does not mean you will sell your country to them to do the better job. They will kukuma kick you out of your own country. |
