Shut up. What's there to celebrate?

Did you see the massive toll gates they mounted there while building free railway and roads to Buhari's bandit brothers in Niger Republic?

This bridge is not free. Igbos are paying for it. Chinese investors were told to build it with their money and mount toll gate for next 25 - 40 years. What a wicked country.

So I should start jumping up for a loan I'll pay at ridiculous years for decades? Even unborn Igbo kids will pay for it and I should be happy?

To the kids saying railway is not free. Niger Republic bandits that travel on trains are only paying for train ride which is about 50% subsidized by Ministry of Transportation. They don't pay for building the railway.

Meanwhile Igbos will pay for transport to ply on the useless bridge and still pay extra for toll gate. If you're traveling with your car, you'll pay for car, buy fuel and still pay tollgate. Are you people daft or something?

Wow!!
Do you know the name of Chinese investors that built this with their money?

APC beats PDP and other parties in only one thing, poverty propagation.
Even Russia with all the sanctions on them have not had their currency devastated like the naira under apc. In naija you hear of 200% devaluation!
Do you know diesel is ₦650 today? More expensive than in the US.

I agree with you that APC messed our economy up. But my argument is that every party in Nigeria has it's own demons...same PDP spent N2.7trillion electricity to give us more perpetual darkness and ensure Nigerians spent their end of the year periods queuing for petrol.

But at the federal level, the APC has given so much attention to major infrastructure in 7 years than a party that was in power for 16yrs. APC has its many demons, but PDP is never a good replacement for APC. Same people parade both corridors looking for where to regain lost prominence and gain access to the treasury again. The sooner we know this the better for us. Instead, support individuals with tested success rate in governance, not party or desperate spent men.

And for your info, 1 Russian ruble will give you just 3 naira

You are Indiot. All the new roads being constructed all over the country are going to be tolled. It is not the matter south east alone.

The tolling are largely to finance maintenance not repayment necessarily.

Kano-maiduguri road was built by GEJ by federal government has already contracted tolling it to third party.
Nigeria is bankrupt, we cannot afford all these things now

Lovely. The fourth picture looks like they want to put toll gate there. Haba!
They have not finished and they already built toll gates.

Answer: Because the bridge is not being funded by the Nigerian government as they claim, but a coalition put together by Julius Berger. So I heard from Julius Berger MD, face to face, in 2012.

Changed what exactly, cause I see more tolling booths on that bridge than you have at Lekki. What exactly did he change about it or its a case of the more you look the less you see.

Fashola has not completed a single federal road in the South East since he has been minister. Yet thats not how he is building in the South West.

You claim that a coalition was put together by Julius Berger

Fashola cancelled PPP so if you see toll there then likely the FG will either concession them or operate them directly.
The SE is a tiny place and does not contribute much so pro rata it should get less that the SW but that is not happening.
The money for that bridge is paid upfront by the FG with funds from the Niger Delta ,Lagos and Abuja

You sef stop comparing Nigeria with US and Russia... diesel in Nigeria is cheaper than what obtains in most European country too....Those countries are not in any way in our league. Artificial inflation is what we are battling as a country...and sadly the govt is finding it difficult to find a lasting solution to it. So in that regard, I agree with you.

Your illiteracy and ignorance are incurable.

You are so foolish that you couldn't imagine that any Nigerian could use the rail to Niger?

Do you know how many traders from Southern Nigerian that do business between Nigeria and Niger?

So, it is only Igbos that would use the 2nd Niger Bridge? E be like say kerosene pour inside your brain.

Do you think the old Niger Bridge would be tolled or dismantled because of the new one?

This one think say toll gates no dey abroad.....if you no wan pay toll, you use alternative route. No be fight.

You no how much wey gridlock for the current Niger Bridge dey cost (manhour losses) the country?

For your information, na Julius Berger dey provide the most fund (over 80%), and also dey build the bridge. I no no wetin carry Chinese investors come 2nd Niger Bridge.

Fool. The whole southeast don't have any working railway and you're building expensive standard guage railway to Niger Republic of Boko Haram and Fulani bandits origin.

Yet tomorrow you'll be shouting One Nigeria like clown. If Igbos say they don't want Nigeria, you'll be tagging FIFA, UNN, UEFA, etc.
