I'm a private school teacher. I lost my job due to the covid-19 pandemic, I've been living on my savings ever since coupled with some money I had borrowed from friends. I've been scouting for job to at least get something to cater for daily feedings and start settling my debts but it seems there's no way out of this.

Right now, I've no single kobo on me, the last time I eat anything was on Friday. It's tiring and I'm so depressed already.

Is this not the man that caused and is still causing the problems of a country called Nigeria?

How we wish he could resurrect to see the calamity and collosal damage he is causing a country because of his wrong decision....damn.

The bridge was built by sir Frederic lugard in 1904.

It was reconstructed in 1920.

This math is incoherent. Built in 1904, constructed in 1920. OP should check and correct the error.

The footbridge is located in Kaduna state Nigeria. It was built during colonial rules. Before the bridge was constructed there was no way if linking both halves except by canoes.

The bridge was built by sir Frederic lugard in 1904 at zungeru, the capital of the northern protectorate of Nigeria after the Amalgamation of the Northern and southern protectorate.


It was reconstructed in 1920 after it was moved to Gamji gate Kaduna. On 16 of February 1956 it was declared a historic monument.

Nigeria was never designed to look like canada or new zealand...
wake up, this is 2020. whites will never develop a place they have no intention of calling home.
That's why they didn't develop nigeria but developed canada, australia, new zealand and to some extent south africa.
Lord Lugard should never be applauded, he had no business creating a nation without the consciousness and approval of inhabitants within the territory.
