Your observation are filled with hate and bigotry. This is why Nigeria is walking slowly. This country is nauseating.

A vast majority of the people from your region are just foolish and blinded by stupid politics. This is why Nigeria is sinking and will keep sinking untill you all senseless beings are relegated to the abyss.

Without mincing much words to addressing your flawed logic and regressed thinking, The second Niger bridge, built many years ago was in dilapidated condition and severally, it has failed to accommodate that amount of traffic, usually, that passes through.

On the coastal road you smuggled into the argument, can we start by asking ourselves pertinent questions as to where the coastal road will pass through? If you have traveled to the South or live in the South, kindly state where the coastal road will pass through in Rivers State.

I'm waiting for your response.

Forumites:
You can make your points without using abusive words… Anyone that says anything not aligned with your ideology automatically becomes ibo. From governors to 2 billion then to coastal road. I couldn’t comprehend your point at all. If you have passed that bridge you’ll know that it’s just two lanes. What happens if both sides got a broken down truck of which I have experienced? You can abuse me all you like.

Why was the third bridge built while the 1st and second can be renovated,and why will the state government want to build the 4th one while the other 3 bridges are still there?

Leave the op to keep trying to find fault with the 2nd Niger bridge and know that yhe pain in their blood concerning the bridge will never fade in this life or their next

Read up on the real reason the bridge was constructed above and be filled with wisdom

Tellmeastory:
Can somebody tell me why the 2nd Niger Bridge was built?

That bridge cost nearly 2 billion dollars.

If you look at the picture, the bridge is within walking distance from the PERFECTLY FUNCTIONING 1st Niger Bridge to the left.

You can walk from one bridge to the next in about 10 minutes!

That 2 billion dollars could have been put to use in more productive ways for the masses.

The south east pressured the FG to build this WHITE ELEPHANT bridge.

What was wrong with this bridge, that they had to build a brand new one right next to it for 2 billion dollars?

Meanwhile the much more productive potential Lagos - Calabar coastal highway was lambasted by the SE people as a ''waste of money''!

Even our president having a 100 million dollar plane purchased to fly him around safely was lambasted by Peter Obi and his SE cohorts.

Some of them even saying he should fly with Air Peace.

Yet they backed this useless White Elephant that cost 20 times more than the plane?

Am I missing something here?

WHILST YOU CRY ABOUT A BRIDGE YET TO BE COMPLETED, WE ARE GETTING READY FOR THE THIRD NIGER BRIDGE.



AFTER THAT, FORTH NIGER BRIDGE AND THEN WE WILL MEET TO DISCUSS ON THE FIFTH NIGER BRIDGE.




SO LET IT PAIN U WELL OK?

THINGS WILL ONLY GET WORST FROM HERE.





DONT U SEE THE WAY THE COUNTRY HAVE BEEN GOING DOWN AND DOWN AND IT WILL CONTINUE LIKE THAT UNTIL WE ALL GO OUR SEPARATE WAY.





WHETHER NIGERIA OR NOT, WE WILL ALWAYS BUILD BRIDGES ALONG THAT CORRIDOR, SO IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE TO US.

Tellmeastory:
How is the bridge ''dilpidated''? That bridge looks okay, and seems to just need a spray wash!

When a bridge like that is getting old, you do reinforcement engineering to strengthen it.

The solution is not to build a 2 billion dollar brand new ''2nd'' bridge right next to it, unless you are UAE and all these money miss road gulf oil countries with tiny populations.

After all we have far older bridges than that all over the world that are still standing gidigba till today, like Brooklyn bridge New York, that was built in 1869.

1st Niger Bridge was built in 1965!

Yesterday!

I blame the guy replying you. He should leave you and you kind to feast on you post with you evil intent.

The insult on Oba of Benin didn't sell and you're looking for another shot to take at us?

You've failed.

Masturbate on your post and if the Bridge angers you so much, cry yourself to death.

You obviously don't live here and know nothing of the disastrous holdups everyday on that Niger bridge. Kindly shut up. Thanks

Igbos came and give him attention.

You are arguing with a brain-dead tribalist on why the Niger- bridge is important?

It will be interesting to see this guy's opinion on this topic since he is always against major infrastructure in Nigeria.

And what is the economic benefits of 3rd mainland bridge?

A simple fairy system that can carry people and car would do and generate billions

All you APC people know is to build worthless projects that u can brag with, that's all

For you that's governance

GDP growth, HDI and other relevant development stats means nothing to you

Travel to Asaba during Xmas period and try using the bridge to cross over to Anambra, you will sleep there for three days without crossing over

YOU ASK A DUMB QUESTION ,BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOT SLEPT IN MIDST OF hardened HOODUMS ON NIGER BRIDGE AT NIGHT TRYING TO ENTER ANAMBRA AND IMO

Ttalk:
All your epistles is not what the OP is asking.

His point is why did the SE blackmailed the FG to build 2Niger bride when it could have been rehabilitated and probably added another lane for wider passage rather than building a brand new bridge when there are other pressing commitment. Same Igbo are the one shouting at the top of their voice that the coastal road is a wasteful spending

I have read previous posts and I'll like to add that, the choice of locating the bring was that of the project owner. They could have as well constructed closer to the first one.

Also, we know about padding and over bloated cost in public domain.

Talking about pressure, why hasn't the FG bowed to allowing SE and SS have a functional seaport?

The earlier we understand we are all stake holders in the project called Nigeria, the better

It's practically in his hands, and a million of you cannot stop it if he wants it.

See the price bross

Let 100 / hundreds of truck break down on the road get a tow vehicle to remove it so traffic can flow well. Building new bridge is not solution to broken down vehicle across the globe.

Dapo Abiodun you Igbo claim is the worse in the SW as accomplished times 100 what Alex Otti can only dream yet you claim he is a failure.

Ordinary Ambode that wasn't given second term very few of your Igbo governor that wasted 8 years can measure up to his achievement.

Brimstone77:

Mention one governor in your region that's better than any south east governor.

Look at this foolish soul, because Buhari was poor that was why you Igbo labelled all northerners Almajiri n herdsmen ba ?

You think I am naive about your foolishness.. you fool claim Buhari was bad, same Buhari Nigerians all rejected 3 solid times till Ebele made him an option Nigerian had to run to.

Igbos didn't bad mouth Yardua did that stop you igbos badmouthing Awolowo, did you igbos not bad mouth Tinubu long before he even became president.

Stay there make pant de wear your father. Suddenly igbos are now saint after insulting everybody because your preferred candidate lost election.

seems you don’t understand. I don’t want to respond to you again until you have some sense.

What level of hatred is this? When I used to live in Asaba, I dread going to the east because of this bridge. Sometimes hold up will extend from the bridge to koka junction. Because the road was not wide enough to contain all the traffic coming from the North and West. Those were some of my worst experience especially especially the festive seasons where I had some businesses to take care of in Onitsha on regular basis. It wasn't funny at all

Go throughmy post and you will see i have always been in support of the coastal road. Same way I have supported the 2nd Niger Bridge. They are all very important

Ttalk:
No one is saying the 2nd Niger Bridge has no advantage, but why condemn the building of a coastal road on account of paucity of resources and priority when the same factors were present when the 2nd Niger Bridge was built and you didn't complain

Na wa o,

OP raised a very good point.

I don’t know why they are abusing him. That bridge looks very unnecessary, considering there is a bridge there already.

Tellmeastory:
Use your head, IPOB.

''only one lane comes to use during heavy traffic'' because LIKE I SAID, the bridge needed reinforcement engineering to strengthen it.

The Brooklyn bridge wasn't built in 1869 to handle the weight it does today.

It was strengthened to handle today's level of weight.

SAME should have been done with the 1st Niger Bridge, rather than building a brand new bridge for 2 billion dollars right next to it.

You are right cause it can be reinforced. They are quick to criticize project that will impact in other region. Obi and his people should have ask the federal government to fix all dilapidated federal roads in south east. Help me ask them, which oil was used for the second niger bridge. Hypocrite

tricksters:
Can you listen to the foolish excuse this clowns are dishing out for wasting 2 billion dollar on a bridge. If a truck break down why can't the lunatics you elected as governor provide standby tow vehicle like we have on 3ed mainland bridge ?!

So because you igbos elect lunatics n failures as governor we have to keep wasting 2 billion plus to build new bridges eveey now n then yet same you do not want others to have coastal road ?!

I wonder, anambra government don't have a towing vehicle. The mumu keep exposing their under development. Help me ask him, which oil money they used for the Bridge cos as at that time, anambra wasn't a oil producing state. They cry about a coaster road that will generate billions of naira for government,when completed but celebrate the bridge without revenue to the federal government.Very hateful people with evil minds.
