Pictures: First Highway Bridge In Nigeria Has Collapsed by Greenage(op): 11:18am On Jun 30, 2016
the road linking Ibadan and Oyo constructed in 1906 is recorded to be the first motorable road ever constructed in Nigeria. However, a bridge that links the road to a commercial centre (Ojoo) at Abatakan in Ibadan has turned to be a menace. All efforts to make a pedestrian bridge for people to pass has been futile due to the volume of water flowing.

It could be erosion actually especially when drainages are blocked. But I think such constructions usually have lifespan too. Perhaps a renovation is long overdue.

As at the time of construction 1906, you would have paddled a canoe within your region. So that is to show you civilisation started from South-west.
