Not need trying to make a purse out of a sow's ear, I need to specifically call out Lagos as the only state in Nigeria that is progressive! We should give Lagos all the support it can get! I really like Lagos and would want it to be a modern city like other cities we av globally! Lagos should have a special care package aside the national budget that would ensure within d next 8-10 yrs it would have improved by 40% of wat it is now with 24hrs electricity, Clean water, metro buses, international airports, international railway stations, uber boats, Fire hydrants / street / Important homes, with good responsive fire dept, 112 that's as modern and efficient as 911 , and more modern police with body cams, tasers, restrain strips, batons, tear gas, paper tapes & other modern firearms we re sick and tired of seeing rusty Ak47's, the services of UK town planners should be employed to help make this possible 2 Likes |

mamaafrik: I think both North Central and North West, Lagos-Kano project would likely serve the whole of the North and North Central, Northern states are landlocked states, SS+SE can manage Onne Seaport and Tinapa for the mean time till Lagos-Kano project has been completed, I can't really say which region has more Industries than the other, but North depend solely on Lagos port than SS and SE |

I am yet to see a country that celebrates mediocrity and past glory as Nigerians do. FYI, Lagos probably needs 10 of such bridges across strategic location. OP, keep up the lizard chest beating of Lagos Mega City. Pointless threads like this is why we continue to dwell in mediocrity. 1 Like |

TechDaddy:Very correct. The problem now is which city especially along the coastal area that is secure with high rate of kidnapping of foreigners who can create jobs in Niger Delta or is it Northern states where banditry is the order of the day. Well, everything depend on government proactiveness |

Tunde835: Tokyo has a land mass of over 2,000 square metre. Beijing's over 16,000. Lagos has a land mass of 1,000 square metre plus poor road network and urban planning. There is a huge difference. 1 Like |

pafra: Please next time read between the lines before you quote me. I said the FG should "work towards creating" not "create". What I mean is they have a MAJOR ROLE to play in developing more commercial cities in Nigeria. |

I am willing to bet far more than what you and your family have done but I do not see the need to brag about it and I never will. Neither will I be forced to join issues with you. If you cannot see why this thread is pointless then you clearly do not have the faculties needed to have an informed conversation with me. Mariory: |

TechDaddy: I like this. If we had ten commercial city(like Lagos) out of the 36 states, 1. Lagos would not be this populated 2. There would be almost no traffic 3. There would be decrease in unemployment 4. Housing cost would be lower, I guess There are just so many advantages of this if we had a government with a vision. |

TechDaddy: You have not said anything different. You are still repeating yourself. You mean if the federal government have major role then the state government should have minor role. Just admit it, you are wrong on this. Most of you have been brain wash to think that Buhari is the center of the problem in your state |

Re: The Lekki-ikoyi Link Bridge (construction Pictures) by naturalwaves: 11:32pm On Jul 29, 2020 |
ubcandid:I guess you did not see where it was clearly stated that they act as tension elements. How can a so called engineer or even a science person state that the cables are put there so the bridge doesn't look boring. Is a bridge an activity to start with? In fact, the cable was put there for decoration . How many suspension bridges have you seen being built with no cables?Thank God the contract was not awarded to you both. Lives would have been lost. |

naturalwaves: did you see the numerous piers? that's why he made that statement which you didn't understand. suspension bridges are not known to have much pillars. |
Re: The Lekki-ikoyi Link Bridge (construction Pictures) by Nobody: 12:03pm On Jul 30, 2020 |
what a man can do a woman can do better. women why we no see una among the engineers. |
Re: The Lekki-ikoyi Link Bridge (construction Pictures) by naturalwaves: 12:06pm On Jul 30, 2020 |
ubcandid:He said there was no need for cables. He said that, the cables were just put there in order not to make the bridge boring. That you either use cables or piers and never both. Can you imagine? Wneras, theee two things are needed. Almost all suspension bridges I have seen have cables as they are needed for those reasons stated in my post. |
Re: The Lekki-ikoyi Link Bridge (construction Pictures) by ubcandid(m): 1:31pm On Jul 30, 2020 |
naturalwaves: the cables are characteristic of suspension bridges, the cables are not needed here but more for aesthetics as the space between the piers nullifies it's purpose. Search online for pictures of suspension bridges and you would comfortable count the number of piers supporting the structure. At most 4. |
