The Enugu state government has reacted to the outcry by the public on the Akwata, Ogbete Main Market Bridge which posses danger to residence.

According to Louis Amoke, the Senior Special Assistant on Media to the Enugu State government and made available to NGHUBS, due process for the completion of works is on-going

Read full statement below

On the issue of the pedestrian bridge at Akwata, Ogbete Main Market, Enugu constructed over the years, the present administration is already aware of the problem as well as other similar structures identified at Peter Okoye street, Uwani and Lagos street, Asata, Enugu.

Due process for the completion of works is on-going for the relevant ministry to thereafter, commence work immediately, for safety.

Members of the public are, therefore, advised to stop using the bridge until the necessary safety measures are put in place, accordingly.

Thank you and God bless

Enugu State is in the hands of God!

Why making this issue a news?

The bridge was built by Sullivan Chime and a top grade project overall, if you know Akwata like me that grew up in the area and uses this road to enter the market almost daily, you will understand the miracle Sullivan performed here. This was one of the best works done in Enugu in those days. But just like in everything, Nigerian contracts are not supervised properly by the people that awarded them. Somehow the rails were omitted, making the bridge a death trap. That was wrong.

But for this present Enugu state government to just stand up and start making noise about correcting the mistake is plain noise making. Just go ahead and fix good rails on the existing bridge and get on with your works. This should not be a media campaign on another man legacy project. This rails should not take a week to fit, why the campaign.

That useless abandoned pedestrian bridge was done by Sullivan the thief

How he is a saint under Buhari
I laugh at idiotic pigs and cows who are always eager to liken Buhari to a corruption fighter grin
