Imagine this is Nigeria....

To all those who gave taken the white man as a God....

In America, they will sue the government and the contractors for sure payment of damages.
Do you know if that is the case here

do you even know how many years that bridge has been there, please get sense and they would even sue the parties involved if it is found they used fake materials after proper investigation,no matter how bad US is Nigeria is 1000 times more worse
I think they renovated it, the issue now is that the person handling the contract probably used substandard materials or did not do the renovation properly, that person don enter one chance motor.

what happened here was inconsequential as to the disaster that always happens here in Nigeria

[b]Watch how it will be fixed within hours,. [/b]But in Nigeria a typical situation would take decades

Na lie
It's people like you who think the whites are perfect and tend to run down their own for whatever reason just to show the superiority of the white man. If it had happened in Nigeria you won't call it an accident but start blaming buhari and using unsavory words to describe you fellow countrymen

Nobody is taking whiteman as God, but I saw the news yesterday they have started investigation and those who were injured have been taking to the hospital. The diesel tanker leak did not escalate. Insurance will take care of people's vehicles and damages. But here what do you have. Ikeja tanker is recent, many people lost their lives, but only condolences and promise to investigate.

Let's see how long is going to take them to fix it, i ll target more than one year, hopefully am wrong, I remember when earthquake happened in italy, my secondary school was totally destroyed,it took the stupid government more than one year to rebuild it and more than three years to even start reconstructing the city, developed country re getting backward and worst day by day, exempt few countries

Well, a lot of people over there obtain insurance...for health and cars...something most Nigerians have refused to do, despite our insurance companies screaming for decades that they should do so.(and even then a lot of Nigerians are enrolled under NHIS/PHIS..AND have car insirance...so those in Ikeja may be covered)

Plus money that could be spent on NHIS is wasted on things like petrol subsidy.
