The local bridge linking Ezinifite in Anambra state to Orsu local government area in Imo state collapsed yesterday by a heavy truck loaded with bags of cement owned by UNICEM company.

The Member Representing Orsu State Constituency in the Imo State House of Assembly, Hon. Engr. Uche Agabige who visited the scene of the accident to ascertain the extent of damage was accompanied by Awo-Idemmili Divisional Police Officer and Area commander, Orlu and other security agencies in Orsu LGA at the scene to maintain peace and order in the accident scene.

That unicem company should pay for every dime to fix that local bridge or be forced to upgrade it, dont be surprised he is dodging from security outfits.

Why in the world would even an illiterate driver drive a truck through such a local bridge with metal floorings.. now a truck loaded with cement..

Lol

This man must be connected


See his face sef
Either he's the driver or he wants to beat the driver ...


Meanwhile........
Let the Unicem company just offload the cement and use it to build them a new bridge...

An old colonial-era bridge still connects Anambra and Imo state?

But what are these people in government doing sef? From the local government peeps to HOA and HOR member representing that constituency? State and Federal government too?

And the senator representing that constituency will be seeking re-election bid

Thank God its not dangote truck

Trailer loaded with Cement on a wooden wooden forgotten bridge.

E done b..the house of rep guy will be like...

Nna men,I don hammer be dis o.thank God.

Mind u,don't believe bloggers,dis myt be from a movie scene.. It myt be film tricks,let's wait till tmrw to confirm

Na Bridge b dis?

It'll probably take a decade until that bridge is fixed. What have we done to merit such an incompetent government?

This is serious

Let them fix it

na wa oh

Lol, who is to blame now. The government or the truck driver. Proudly nigeria

Load carrying capacity grossly violated!

This is a great shame, a great shame actually. An interstate bridge should have the capacity to carry and withstand anything. Even if it is the burden of every Nigerian youth.

Let them blame President Buhari for this again. Meanwhile their Ebele man could not fix any road in this region before we sent him packing. The entire eastern region need to wake up from their slumber to support President Buhari.

Igbos are like disease to their own selves.
They will spray money on others at weddings. Spend millions to marry a girl. Show off in luxury fleets and build exorbitant mansions in foreign.

In their own hometown, they will build second-class homes and fence it off. But the roads leading to their homes are piles of mess. They do not want the poor to benefit from their own wealth. They want to give salt and bread to the poor so as to be perpetually praised and held in high regards.

Look at their roads and bridges. Everyone cares about his personal cash. But the ogbo man is the first to contribute for any devopment in Lagos. Wherever there is no light, igbo man will move in there and personally pay for NEPA connection. The igbo man will aggitate for the construction of bridges in Lagos. They complain of traffic jam hence the government makes the moves.

Unfortunately in their own states, nothing moves. The only governor to have made major changes in the east is Sullivan who constructed roads which had been a major setback for Enugu state.

Okorocha built a statute of Zuma, a man regarded as a criminal in his own hometown. There is no agitation and no conscience at all. Funny enough people go to take selfies by these statutes of criminals.

The on-goings in Anambra is like a war of thugs. Everyone is choked up in his own pride. They want to measure up with the next person. Everyone wants to step on someone and no one wants to be stepped on. The spirit on negative competition. In all the money and boasts from Anambrarians, Anambra is still an eye-sore giving that development of the Igbos began started from there. The earliest top easterners who rose to the helms of any government position or who height of capitalism came from Anambra. They boast of it and they fail to realize that is it a curse. The very first president, first governor general, first senate president and first millionaire or billionaire all came from Anambra. But go to Anambra today, more than a half of her children are outside the state. They have invested trillions elsewhere. They cannot live in the mansions that they build in their hometown. It is like a curse. They are hugely involved in rituals and unscrupulous means of earnings. The average Anambrarian has dual-religion and is supportive of illegality.

People from Imo state have danced their waists to foolery. Imo and Abia are beautiful. They are the most beautiful of all Igbos. . But to what end? When you talk of Handicraft, Abia is grade-A. They create and they are decent. But, when the head is twisted the brain moves along with it.
People from Imo state have used their traditional to destroy themselves. The tradition and attitudes are very bad. Gossip and evil-oriented agendas have destroyed those people. They cannot move forward. Owerri is the helm of success in those places yet who wants to go to Owerri? No one!

The east is not a choice place to live for the average Igbo man. They are all seeking greener pastures elsewhere.

This bridge has been this way for years but no one cares. They will rather seek alternative route than repair a place that is not their very own plot.

Shame on the pride of igbos. It has eaten up your success.

Do not blame the government for everything. Lagos was not developed by the government, but by the people. Igbos inclusive. Igbos have developed even badagry. Today, there is not boundary between Lagos and Ogun state thanks to Igbos. Soon, there will be no border between Seme and Cotonou, thanks to Igbos.


This is Igbo through the eyes of an outsider.

The villagers 'll suffer the pains while UNICEM 'll tow their lorry away

Now kindly do something

Colonial Era bridge comment got me

Hold past administration responsible.

The communities should start work immediately with the UNICEM cement. I think is a blessing in disguise

I thought it was a big bridge
