The Panseke bridge in Abeokuta is arguably the longest pedestrian bridge not just in Nigeria but in sub-saharan Africa and I took a walk on it to know how long it really is.

I'm more impressed with the picture quality. Even after nairaland cropping. It's still sharp
What camera did you use?

Bullshit... We celebrate things that by right our leaders a since 1960 should have provided in 2021.

Nigeria is all foolishness and at it's peak... But by the way what about old people and handicaps?... How are they going to use the Keke nepe pedestrian bridge?... Oh, they did not think of elderly and handicap people so no elevator or maybe they budgeted for elevator but someone pocket the money?

My people perish for lack of knowledge.... We always see ourselves as deserving nothing hence we will get nothing as a people or tribe or country.

no even space to cross the road. Except you will go and cross at the next turning after panseke which is kolobo.

No matter how long that bridge is, it is still surrounded by brown roofs, the colour of oduduwa republic national flag
And to think of it that you seek asylum their when hardship hit you like a torn of bricks in your hell is even bad.

How do we tell our politicians that pedestrian bridges are a waste of money. In America, you can drive from one state to another and you'll never meet a single pedestrian bridge. Just put bumps and traffic lights/signs to slow vehicles down at pedestrian crossings.
but its faster for traffic and safer for pedestrians to have over head pedestrian bridge

It's long.
Any idea of the administration in which it was constructed?
That administration must be one with vision.

What a brilliant idea!
Surely, those drivers who don't mind going one-way despite the risk of losing their vehicles and heavy fines would happily obey zebra crossing.

I am also sure those law abiding Okada riders who sometimes beat up traffic police to escape sanction would behave immediately
the magic traffic signs are erected.

WRONG! In the U.S, there're pedestrian bridges on interstate highways and Zebra crossings on local and county roads.

It's not a competition, the one in Abeokuta is far far longer than the one in Ojodu Berger. They call it Bridge of confusion.

The idea for the construction is good but the resources used is too much and the use is not accepted to the mass. please when next the need arise for re-constructing another one, use the alternative way it will work better and everybody will like it. simple look for the highest person height + 2ft/2 ½ down ½ up eg 10/2 =5 five ft up high five ft down deep bridge with light and ventilation you save resource and people will buy the idea.
