Due to the on-going Investigation Maintenance Works on Third Mainland, a portion of the Carter Bridge that needs urgent work has been discovered. According to the lady that discover this portion, Mrs. Abosede Balogun has called on the minister of works and housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola to act as urgent as possible. According to her tweet...

Kindly repair Carter Bridge. This is from Oyingbo en route to Idumota/CMS. I have not taken dis route in years but due to 3rd Mainland Bridge closure that was why I was able to snap this. Pls, fix it.

The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola has responded and acted accordingly, according to the statement which was released on his Facebook page, he said,

Federal Ministry of Power, Works, And Housing wishes to assure the good people of Lagos that Experts from the Ministry have examined the damaged part of Iddo Overhead Bridge (not Carter Bridge as mentioned in social media posts). There is no cause for alarm as the cracks caused by the constant abuse of the Bridge has not affected its structural integrity and will be fixed in due course.


Meanwhile, AutoReportNG got a clip which shows men from the ministry and officials who came to inspect the bridge and may likely start work on it as soon as possible.

Fashola, the President Nigeria may never have. despite all these Apshit stuff, he is still himself; listening to the cries of people.


Modified!!!

Hint of sarcasm is a shadow.

One of the rare confused wailer

Who did Fashola reports to ?

It’s a pity I can’t reformat this one

It’s gone beyond repair

Everything should be made a lot of noise for. Nigeria as a country is creating nuisance to the media space helped by her leaders. This bridge maintenance has generated noise much more than building the new one.

Over 6500 kilometers of roads built.. Lai Mohammed
Over 10 thousand megawatts distributed... Fashola
Over 10 million houses built..... Fashola
Over 10 billion dollars recovered... Magu
Over this .... Over that..... APC led Govt.

What happens to giving us information on specifics?
What happens to accountability?
What happens to competence even when there is pool of it?

Power of social media

Thought as much

Of course.
Compare the above guys being in charge of managing our Federal government affairs with fast rising Nollywood actors like:
Saraki, Dino Melaye, Ben Bruce, Bode George, etc. What a joke of a Federal government Nigeria we will have!

My ultimate wish is for swift and brilliant minds like Fashola to become Nigeria's president. Except that Nigeria isn't a normal country.
Zoning, religion and other irrelevant issues are considered before competence.

If say na IPOB hero tenure, nothing happened in as much as embezzlement continues and stealing is not corruption

Always reacting.... U be chemical?




Mr Power is not rocket science.... We still dey wait

Man of the people
Sai Baba...

In a society like ours is good to see a responsive govt agency that acts as fast as possible. In developed societies, you can hardly see a disconnect between govt and its people, so this is highly commendable. It should also be encouraged so that government at all levels can take a cue from this

Oga are you sure you know the meaning of the word 'hypocrite' which you just freely used?.... Also, next time, try and read the report first; if you did, you wouldn't have made this comment.

Lastly, it is "IT'S" not "IS".

enitey:
Power of social media

this is power of a good and responsible government. we complained on issues like this through the same social media during the previous administrations and nothing happened.

This country tire person

Gullible people have forgotten that election is at the corner

yazach:

Stealing is not corruption....but integrity brought in what corruption said was corrupt as it was very glaring that the one corruption said was corrupt was really corrupt...

So between corruption and integrity... Which is really corrupt as in the case of maina

Thought as much

The damaged part started during jonathans government but will be repaired by buhari. Ben bruce, omokri, fani and CAN take note.

Wen election don dey reach
9ja politicianz dey become obidient ehh..

Dey can even come nd start sweepin d street

IMAO

It's too early for this abeg. Insane country filled with insane leaders and insane citizens. What was the government looking at for the bridge to get into such state of degradation. Some idiots are praising them for doing what they were elected to do. Like someone praises you for taking out the trash or making minor repairs in your house...

The reason why this is news worthy is very obvious; anyone who is Nigerian knows the typical reaction time of the Nigerian government to complaints like this can be from months to years. But this one happened within 24-48 hours.
