The many questions on the lips of many are, will the 2nd Niger Bridge ever come to reality? Are we not been scammed as usual? When are we going to reap the benefit of this government? All these and more questions we come across daily which most times we have no answers for them.

The Second Niger Bridge Project is one project that the Eastern folks look up to with high expectations, many began having a mixed feeling when it was reported that youths in this area shut down the construction site and demanded 10billion naira as compensation from Julius Berger, the company handling the project, well, we have some news for you all.

AutoReportNG promised our readers up to date information about how work is faring at this site, we also promise to give live images, feed and camera view from the site. According to the latest images made available to AutReportNG, we noticed some latest developments and construction, for example, the following were reported at the site...

[img]https://1.bp..com/-m_vLBUwgM1c/XbSBSci_waI/AAAAAAAAhn0/YwqZSme6JWY-aQ73T-yd4F42l06eDrQjQCLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/2nd_Niger_Bridge_014_AutoReportNG.com.jpg[/img]

- Maintaining a temporary dam (against rising water table)
- Offshore pier construction (Axes 210 + 220)
- Installation of scour protection (Axis 250)
- Casting station for incremental launching (West Approach)
- Increased stiffness piers Axis 110 for Incremental launching (West Approach).

We can report that work is ongoing at the site daily as the engineers are working on making sure that they meet up with the target set by the federal government of Nigeria.

The Second Niger Bridge is a key national infrastructure, with immense socio-economic benefits for the contiguous states and indeed the entire nation. It is a project by the Federal Government of Nigeria, represented through the Federal Ministry of Works and Housing in collaboration with the Nigerian Sovereign Investment Authority.

Upon completion, the bridge will ease traffic flow, improve road safety, and create greater opportunities for local residents by advancing the commercial viability of the immediate area and regenerating economic life.

The scope of works includes the construction of 1.6 km long bridge, 10.3 km Highway, Owerri interchange and a toll station. The bridge is estimated to be completed in 42 months (3 and half years) and so far, 26 months seem gone.

These are live images from the site as obtained by AutoReportNG.

Some people think that the 2nd Nigeria bridge is being constructed in such a way that will prevent the movement of vessels on the river.

What's your view?

They are right. What’s different from what you posted months ago as new changes of that bridge? The so called new changes you just posted is the same thing in different angles. You’ve recycled those images more than once in different angles. Everyone can see you are one of the stooges of BMC paid by this useless government to spread propaganda that they are actually doing their job. That’s the problem with APC, rather than work, all you do is disturb the country with nonsense and propaganda. The most useless government.

Maybe if you people actually start working, you wouldn’t need to continuously chun our nonsense every few months and calling out everyone that points out the uselessness of this government as hateful.

That's how Yorubas are. I'm always shocked when they accuse Igbo as their antagonist. I've been on this forum to witness how many topics Yoruba open to insult Igbos or how they turn every topic to insulting Igbos. I'm not even Igbo and if I'm irritated by their actions therefore, I wonder how the Igbos feel. When they retailate now and start cursing and abusing them, the Yoruba will immediately start pretending as saints getting attacked for no reason. They call insult to them as hateful but they being tribalist and insulting another tribe as patriots. What sort of rubbish is that?

In the beginning they were happy as Buhari was marginalising Ndigbo and showing us pepper: stopped ongoing works on the 2nd Niger bridge; ignored AIIA Enugu, while airports in Kaduna, Kano, Lagos and Abuja got all the attention; didn’t include any Igbo in the headship of security, military and paramilitary institutions/agencies; tagged us 5% not deserving of equal treatment with those that gave him 97%; ignored south-east/south-south in railways construction, while stopping the already existing ones operating in the regions like the Enugu-Port Harcourt daily rail service; sent his soldiers down to south-east to murder our protesting youth in cold blood; etc...etc...etc!

Now, it’s like they’re desperate to show Buhari is fair-minded towards Ndigbo and has smothered us in love and affection! Why the sudden change in their disposition towards us?

You beat a child and then complain when it cries!

I oppose the Idea that Buhari is showing us love. The North have been playing us politically right from the inception.they dont strike me as people who are highly intelligent compared to the south. Their main strength is UNITY. No matter how badly treated the middle belt are treated, they still have a way to manipulate them and bring them to their side. What is killing the south is GREED. The Fulanis have a way of playing out with the intention of bribing the elites from the south making them stupendously rich. so that when their people are treated badly they cannot utter word or they would be brought down faster than a speed train. They are playing us badly and well. if we have selfless leaders that dont care about money, and they make an alliance which the North knows will not happen, They North would be brought to its knees. The Sw is the string that hold the unity of this country. if it breaks, The Igbos who have always made their intentions known would celebrate the break up of Nigeria like we won the world cup. but the British will not allow it with the fulanis. if Nigeria break, te region that would be the most useless would be the North. They have enjoyed so much oil money that they dont know what it is like to hustle the way we do down here in the south.
