Anambra Student On Excursion Drowns In Ebonyi River (Photos) by stephenduru(op): 12:01pm On Oct 12, 2019
The ancient and locally made Akadoro Bridge in Ezza North Local Government Area of Ebonyi State is believed to be the worst bridge in Ebonyi and one of the deadliest bridges East of the Niger.

Pitiably, the Akadoro bridge is the only major bridge that connects Ekka, Ogboji, Nkomoro & Inyere communities and some parts of Umuezoka, all in Ezza.

Trezzy Helm gathered that the bridge which over the years had turned to a death trap has claimed the lives of innocent Nigerians including an undergraduate Mr Kenneth Nwankwo, Mr Ezaka, and Mr. John Igwe, among others.

The most recent death on the bridge occurred on Friday 11th October as one young man, a surveyor by profession and an indigene of Anambra State, Chinweike Macmillan mistakenly slipped off the bridge and got drowned in the water below the bridge.

According to the information, Chinweike and his 3 other colleagues were on excursion to the bridge and had been able to cross the bridge connecting to Amegu community but unfortunately met his sudden death while returning from the journey.

Photos show the body of the drowned surveyor, Chinweike Macmillan being lifted from the river.

What kind of backward bridge is that?
Knowing fully well that the river is deep, why not construct a portable bridge?
RIP to him .
Next ebonyi state governor should focus on aggressive rural development.
Enough of this overhyped flyovers and lightworks brouhaha by umahi.

Life isn't hard. Our government just like making it hard for we citizens. If our government are ready to work, they know what to do. It wouldn't be hard for each state to have an online forum each. People can give report of a bad road on the forum with pictures, with that, the governor of the state can know which road needs urgent attention and every road to work on. RIP to the young surveyor.

Na, north is the most backward region in the county and I have seen similar and worse bridges across the country. One was seen in Kongi state last week that collapsed.
