Exactly!! Some people can be so annoying. You need to see the way soldiers were flogging some drivers.

Flogging is not the solution. The soldiers were just being LAWLESS as well hence they obviously achieved very little sustainable result.

The POLICE should have ENCOURAGED the people to do the right thing of two lanes so EVERYONE can move slowly but STEADILY in the heavy traffic as opposed to almost everyone being stuck.

Re: Niger Bridge Is Shaking. by Dahkogrin007(m): 7:17am On Oct 28, 2014
It is quite unfortunate that Nigerians buy all the lies
they trade through the media.
This is the only country where people prefer to
believe in a hear say than make a research.
Only a minute population of Nigerians are willing
to investigate an allegation before they draw
conclusions.
Nigerians have resolved to be praise singers to
corrupt leaders. We have failed to ask for
accountability. Our conscience has been
beclouded with religious and ethnic sentiments.
Our sense of judgement and reason have been
blinded by poverty. We chose to mortgage our
tomorrow and the future of our children for the rice
and a few Naira notes they share during elections.
All we believe is the roads, the bridges, the
railways, the electricity they build only on
televisions.
I always ask my self these questions:
1. Where are the roads? The Abuja - Lokoja road
was awarded by Obasanjo's administration. He
spent 8 years in the office. Then Yaradua and
Goodluck spent another 8 years. Now if Goodluck
is elected, he will be spending another 8 years.
This will amount to 24 years and 180 km road is
yet to be completed. Enugu - Onitsha road was
also awarded by the Obasanjo administration and
till date, a journey that is supposed to take 45
minutes can take you 8 hours if it rains. Enugu-
PH road is on the same series. What about Uyo -
Calabar route? Just to mention a few.
2. Where is the power? They sold all the NEPA to
their friends. We pay for the light that was not
supplied.
3. Our education and health system go bad
everyday. Lecturers and Health workers spent
more time at home than in the schools and
hospitals as a result of incessant strikes.
4. The government failed to provide us with
security. People are being killed everyday and yet
government comes out to tell us they are in
control.
4. Why are we pretending that all is well? It is only
in Nigeria where monies develop wings and fly. $
20 billion oil money disappeared and they said it
was $10 billion. Forensic investigators were hired
and that was the end of the story. N20 billion
pension fund stolen and nothing came out of it. $
9.3 million seized in South Africa and government
claimed it was meant for ammunition purchase.
The immigration scandal has also been swept
under the carpet because the senate could not
proceed with their investigation. The man behind
the contract is sitting among the high seats in the
senate. Innocent people were defrauded and they
at the same time lost their lives yet, we have a
transparent governance.
5. Why are we praising government as if they are
doing whatever with their personal money. How
many people in their various communities have
they provided scholarship with their personal
money before they got elected? The reason they
got elected is to manage our resources and not to
loot us dry.
One thing I know is that we will not have any
meaningful development except if we make a
change.

If not for people like Peter Obi and his cohorts, Igbos can come together and build that bridge in less than one year. The Imo airport and Abia State university was built with voluntary funds contributed by all Imo State adults and extra from the millionaires.

Even this one they claim to be building will still be funded indirectly by mostly Igbos.
