President Goodluck Jonathan said the Federal Government has spent N10 billion on construction of the 2nd Niger Bridge out of the N130 billion total cost of the project.

The President disclosed this when he stopped over at the project site in Asaba on Saturday on his way to PDP campaign in Onitsha, Anambra.

Mr. Jonathan said it was a big project being executed under a Public Private Partnership (PPP) arrangement.

He said that now that it had taken off, its execution would go on smoothly and uninterrupted through to 48 months completion period.

“So far, out of the N130 billion total cost of the project, we have spent about N10 billion.

“It is a big project and now that it has taken off, it will go on smoothly through the 48 months completion time.

“The project is a PPP arrangement, I am quite impressed with what I have seen,” he said.

He added that most components required for the construction had been procured and piling work had commenced.

The Minister of Works, Mike Onolomemen, said a lot had been done since the flag off of the project in March 2014.

The above was in January of 2015, months nefoe Buhari took over. By the time Jonathan was leaving, most of the materials for the project were already procured and work was planned to go ahead uninterrupted for 48months. Yet 6 years after, Buhari is still stalling the project. And yes, it's a PPP meaning most of the funds for the project is being provided by private corporations.

The only thing Buhari is good at is stealing projects.

Shaaarraaaaaappppp !!!

I refuse to comment.

Werey, after he spent six years deceiving you people, he left you with audio bridge.

Duridadi:
Shaaarraaaaaappppp !!!

Make you people try and embrace some shame now.

At least he built universities for your almajiri brothers. Only if you'd gone to one of those.

Is that the major achievement of GEJ? Or are you shying of listing them?

Still better than your diseased change. Why don't you list any started and completed by Buhari since 1983 he's been around.

Why did he wait till one year to election before flagging off? He had been president since 2010. Only used it to buy your votes as usual.

The same reason Buhari waited till election month to give Yoruba June 12.

..... Shaaaarrraaaaappp

This talk about second Niger bridge is very irritating and shallow. Will should be asking of the different projects being allocated to Daura. Any non eastern talking about the bridge is just being wicked and mischievous. Their aim is to mock the Igbos. Nobody is posting the various projects directed to Kastina states with proceed from oil money and influence of government institutions. At op don't stress yourself. When this government leaves office the truth will always come out.

Your father must lie to death ni so Lagos to Kano rail is revived yet Buhari is building a rail from Lagos to kano and they have only managed to complete Lagos to Ibadan yet Ebele commissioned a rail from Lagos to kano in your bigoted father's slumber ?!

engaging zombies like you would be a waste of precious time
afterall the politicians we spend time defending don't give a damn whether you live or die

was he eating groundnuts throughout his stay in office

Don't misinform people here. He did not build 12 universities. He established 12 universities. They are 2 different things.. You can establish a university without laying a single block..
