When will Nigerians begin to protest for what is right? [size=24pt]All contractors and stakeholders involved in the construction of the bridge must be arrested, investigated and prosecuted publicly. Simple!!![/size]

Rabiu Kwankwashio is the governor of that state and he attributed his 8 years success and massive development to apc which he only joined towards the tail end of his administration. Now, is this failed engineering part of his apc landslide development?

I thought the normal practice is to block roads leading to such routes and mark it X or as a danger zone so that people dont use it. Did the construction company do that?

Well you might be right here but still they have been warned and you wont say all the occupant of the taxi are ignorant of that.

Did you also remember Nigerians are stubborn? some will be facing opposite direct and if they could do that then they can ignore the pedestrian too.

d bridge fallin has nothin to do with d car dat passed under,it collasped due to -
1 poor design n constrution
2use of substandard constrution material n procedure
3nigerian factor - engineers trying to use fewer condements in other to sell others and make quick profit

I know they told him not to pass under and he disobeyed, but still that is not proper bridge construction that can just fall due to a passing car..
Maybe he collided with a support cable or a support post? I dont see it though..

I beg, if passing car can fall a bridge under construction, a passing lorry and the weight of pedestrians would fall the bridge even after construction..

Negligent workmanship at its best....
