Government Attention Needed At Ketu Pedestrian Bridge by thrillionaire(m): 7:11pm On Mar 08, 2017
A Facebook user named Prince has drawn attention to this impending danger. The pedestrian bridge at ketu seems to be failing due to the heavy traffic it carries.

By mere looking at it you can see the strain. We call on the Lagos state government to act fast so as to avoid sad stories and any loss of life.

What a big lie.

The OP picture was shot when govt did barriers across the road preventing people from crossing, people were not able to cross, they had to make use of the pedestrian bridge, this picture is NOT a recent picture of the bridge.

There are roof pillars by the side handle of the bridge, the govt wants to roof the bridge, from the OP pic there are no roof pillars, this is an old news/pic.

What is this eyesore for God sake?

You don't need to be a civil engineer to know that the tensile strength of the concrete used for the construction of the bridge was not meant to carry so many people.

If the bridge eventually collapse and hundreds of people die, you will start blaming devil and ask for God's mercy

Instead of waiting for the time to blame the devil, why can't we find a way to solve this problem.

My suggestion is for the government to build a traffic light with predestrian crossing one kilometer apart on the road. The traffic light should turn to stop every five minutes during rush hour, and 60 seconds giving for pedestrian light for people to cross. This traffic light should be regularly monitored, and any motorist seen violating the light should be charge with manslaughter. We should learn how to value lifes more in Nigeria

This what happen when we can't use the power of unity, if all this people can cross at the same time who will arrest them... The government should know that this bridge is too small for that area.

Old pictures, we already deliberate on this in wazobia forum last year, that's not how the bridge looks presently. This picture is old.
