This Beipanjiang Bridge Duge near Liupanshui in China is the world’s highest bridge. It was opened in December 29 2016 and spans 1.34 km (0.83 miles) between Xuanwei city in Yunnan province and Shuicheng county in Guizhou province.
It stands 1,854 feet (565 meters) above the Beipan River, the height of a 200-story building, and connects two mountainous regions in the country.
The four-lane bridge was built at the cost £114million (₦52billion in Naira) and took atleast 1,000 engineers and technician over 3years to complete .
The Beipanjiang bridge was built to shorten the journey from Liupanshui to Xuianwei from about five hours drive to about one hour.
China is also home to the Sidu River Bridge and the Puli Bridge,the worlds second and third highest bridges respectively.
The Beipanjiang is the highest rather than the tallest bridge. The 1,125 feet Millau Viaduct cable-stayed bridge in France is the world's tallest bridge.
Tallest bridge is measured by the height of the structure including the top of the bridge tower while the highest bridge measures the distance from the bridge deck to the ground.
How about driving on a bridge with a height equivalent to a 200-storey building?
Are you brave enough to look at the valley 565meters below the World’s Highest Bridge?
EmagNig: 79-year-old Bill Oxley, ex-agent of America’s Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has confessed that he killed Bob Marley, the reggae legend.
Marley tragically died aged only 36-years-old, following a four-year battle with cancer.
The story of cancer may seem untrue as startling claims have emerged from a deathbed confession made by an ex-CIA officer, where he admitted to the killing.
According to a report by the Daily Star,Oxley is alleged to have claimed the murder of Marley among 17 other assassinations for the American government between 1974 and 1985, at a time when he said the CIA “was a law unto itself.”
Oxley, who reportedly worked as an operative for the CIA for 29 years, is alleged to have said he was often used as a hitman on targets deemed to “represent a threat to the interests of the United States.”
In a purported interview shared widely online, he admitted having no problem with proceeding with the Bob Marley assassination because
“I was a patriot, I believed in the CIA, and I didn’t question the motivation of the agency – I’ve always understood that sometimes sacrifices have to be made for the greater good.”
According to the conspiracy theory, Oxley used faked press credentials to gain access to Bob Marley at his Blue Mountain retreat; introducing himself as a famous photographer working for the New York Times, and gave Bob Marley a gift.
“I gave him a pair of Converse All Stars. Size 10. When he tried on the right shoe, he screamed out ‘OUUUCH.‘
“That was it. His life was over right there and then. The nail in the shoe was tainted with cancer viruses and bacteria. If it pierced his skin, which it did, it was goodnight nurse.”
“There had been a series of high-profile assassinations of counter-culture figures in the United States in the late sixties, early seventies. By the time Bob Marley’s time came around, we thought subtlety was the order of the day. No more bullets and splattered brains.”
Mr. Oxley says he kept close contact with Marley during the final years of his life, ensuring the medical advice he received in Paris, London and the United States “would hasten his demise rather than cure him.”
“The last time I saw Bob before he died he had removed the dreadlocks, and his weight was dropping like a stone,” he says.
“He was very withdrawn, unbelievably small. He was shrinking in front of us. The cancer had done it’s job.”
Although widely dismissed as fiction, the account does tally with findings by UK scientists in 2014, who discovered the mysterious acral melanomas – the rare type of skin cancer that caused reggae musician’s demise – was in fact not caused by the sun.
Bob Marley’s soon Ziggy has previously implied his Father was killed, saying in a 2013 interview about the death: “I don’t know what to believe … there are a lot of theories.”
as long as you receive material things from your boyfriend directly or indirectly in exchange for sex,sister you are a prostitute,most so-called girl friends are actually prostitute in fact modern dating especially in Nigeria is prostitution.. where a guy gives you money for hair,nails,food,phones and clothes in exchange for 10 minutes of sex that's prostitution.. even some married woman won't have sex with their husbands except the husband gives her money for upkeep ... It's a crazy world..am not glorifying the trend but that's the fact.

BloggersNG: This Guy took love to a whole new level as he climbed a wall just to take a Cute photo of his girlfriend, And the Internet can't keep calm, The guy shared the photos on his page, Its has since gone viral with lots of reactions, see below!
Realdeals: Today August 24, 2018, it will be the 81st posthumous birthday of late Chief Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola (GCFR) the President Who Never Ruled Nigeria. (Kudos to his son and author Abdul Jamiu Abiodun Abiola)
M.K.O Abiola born on August 24th, 1937 died some few months to his 61st birthday on July 7, 1998.
He couldn’t celebrate his 60th birthday in 1997 as he was languishing in the jailhouse of the military junta of late General Sani Abacha who died on June 8, 1998 a month to MKO Abiola’s death.
If he had celebrated his 60th birthday, it could have been a compendium of rich ceremonies. But he was in jail, and the irony of it all was the fact that one of his closest friends and ally, late Chief Azeez Alao Arisekola (also dead) was one of the bosom friends of General Sani Abacha.
But Alao Arisekola’s closeness to the General had little or no effect on MKO Abiola’s freedom from jailhouse. It was like that for 5 years.
In this video, you will not only see how late MKO Abiola the winner of the annulled June 12, 1993 Presidential election celebrated his 50th birthday in Abeokuta on August 24, 1987 (6 months after he became the Basorun of Ibadan land) but you will also see the role Alao Arisekola played in MKO Abiola’s 50th birthday. He was the ‘Charge De Affairs’ at the event and no one could ever think that 10 years down the line, the chemistry will change.
Cultism is not bad. The distinction is that it is not for the common man or those still struggling to survive basic life needs.
Cultism is really fun when you are a rich man or woman, your immediate environment will be at your feet.
if you doubt me, ask Dino Melaye or Wole Soyinka...
am sure u are currently dating cultist, so it's cultism that give woke Soyinka the noble prize right or is cultism that made Dino a senator..if it was so many of my useless colleagues killed due to cultism in university of Calabar could have been Dino n Soyinka
Now I have made front page. I dedicate this feat to the victim of this barbaric act. As for everyone that has seen this post I pray that badness will not swiftly rush you.
see any club trying to strangle an opponent..hahahabah a yellow card will do as long as the opponent has not suffered neck injury.
HigherEd: I don't know how this çould even be possible when one of NUC's requirements for establishing private universities is to provide the Cert Of Occupancy of the land the university is meant to sit on. How should there now be a tussle over a land that could only be licensed if it has a Cof O? Nigeria is a mysterious country. It seems the new trend is to use demolitions to target perceived opponents. This could only be political. But only useless/pathetic govt/politicians would take aim at a university to spite opponents.

I think this is a Political move.. so sad how things are done upside down in Nigeria. How did Adele university got the big approval..
ManirBK: Imagine how corrupt the mind of an average Nigerian Lazy youth is! So, somebody stole the money as some people claim and then keeping it would make the guy 'blessed'? What a mindset!
for the man that returned that money God will bless him in a great way.. let him forget about the corrupt minded fellow insulting him. The mindset of an average Nigerian is corrupt and dirty. That's why we have produced terrible leaders since 1960..
Shortyy: Lol women SMH.. they can settle for anything as long as there's money.. and the gifts keep coming. Lol nigga if you don't respect me, I'll throw your money in your fvckin face.. BS!

Correctgist: A Rich Nigerian man who goes by the name Willie has taken to SnapChat to write on how he was ditched by his girlfriend when he had nothing. 
According to him, the lady left him for a rich man just because he was broke and now that he is already established, she is making attempt to get back to him. But the door is shut already.
HeWrites: This Nigerian couple received the shock of their lives after they broke their joint piggy bank in which they were actively saving in for over 7 months but couldn't believe the amount they found inside it.
The husband, Iheaka Michael Somadina Flb took to Facebook to reveal they found N240 (Two pieces of hundred naira note & Two pieces of twenty naira note) in the piggy bank they were keeping money in since January this year.
According to him, he's confused despite being told by a close relative that some carpenters who make these boxes go diabolical with it.
Read his post below; "After breaking our piggy bank yesterday, we found this. Me and my wife have been saving in these since January and my wife has been very very consistent.
Before breaking it, we checked to ensure it wasn't tampered with and we live alone. A close relative we showed it to told us she heard some carpenters who make these boxes go diabolical with it.
I'm a little confused sha and I don't know what to even believe. Has anyone ever experienced something of this nature?"
I wonder if the white people take advertorials to announce they are marrying black people?I dont think so.
Black people with inferiority complex will not change.
Just write that a NAIRALANDER just got married and we will tell them congratulations. Stop putting the white woman shiii there.
if you are worrying about inferiority complex how about when a woman travels over 8000 miles just to give birth because she wants her children to have oyibo passport..
