China is at war against infrastructure. They are winning all bounds of infrastructure from the roads, to the rails, to the air, and even the seas.



Nigeria is currently too far far back to be discussed.

The Yaxi Expressway, a section of the Beijing-Kunming highway, is a 240-kilometer (149-mile), ladderlike and snakelike road that reaches for the sky.What makes it unique is that with each kilometer, the roadway ascends by 7.5 meters.

The $4.14 b (or ₦1.5trillion) bridge was officially opened to motorists in April 2012 after five years of construction. It features 270 viaducts and 25 tunnels ( total length of the 25 tunnels along the road is about 41 kilometers) and runs from Ya'an to Xichang, Sichuan province.

More than half of the expressway are tunnels and viaducts through mountains. During the five-year project, construction engineers and workers had to overcome geological hazards such as gas, water spouting, faults and rocks bursting.

The expressway was designed to minimize impact on the environment while the spiral tunnels were used to reduce the effect on mountains.

It has become a tourist attraction, even to automakers like Jaguar , who took its XJ limousine to the spectacular road to find out how innovation in road technology and design is helping to match the improving ride of modern luxury cars.

When this useless country is talking about 2023, serious countries are advancing in technology and science.

Education is worthless in Nigeria because it doesn't change the people in any way

[/s] On what tendency do we vote for APC back then in 2015?? they promise to changed the country for the betterment of the common man... and NIGERIANS who felt the pains inflicted by the gullible PDP back then; revive it's sense and join in singing/clamoring for change ....
did APC promise to continue or snailwalked as PDP did??


See my guy..... we shouldn't be criticising PDP for their past mismanagement or what so ever..... we should be holding APC accountable on anything that happened in NIGERIA today.... APC are the actual ones that deceived NIGERIA....not PDP... they registered for exam they didn't read or prepared against.................. they promise CHANGE but later result in blaming PDP........ APC are PhD holders when it comes to FAILURE....... sad
