Eboh Media, thank you for being neutral and showing things as they actually are in person. This bridge and complimentary road infrastructure will certainly be completed as scheduled. Nigerians should also strive to contribute their own quota to the country's greatness. Constantly thrashing the country without constructive solutions will only let other countries disrespect your own nationality as they rely on what you say about your country to make their judgements of your country. It's only going to get better so long as all Nigerians (resident in Nigeria or in diaspora) come together to improve the country.

You are welcome Raph.

[@samsononusco6017]

Wow beautiful. But any way we don't need to praise the federal government. for just building a Male bridge. We need 2 4 7 electricity in our country Nigeria. Thank you my brother for your efforts. Keep it up. One love 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥👍

[@proyouservicesltd3652]

Kudos for bring us this update. Seems to be progressing slowly but steadily. It shouldn't take 4 years to complete a 1 mile bridge and some approaching road network. Kudos to the Federal govt for the great work in finally making this bridge a reality.

Thanks for providing good information on the Bridge. We should commend the PMB administration for building the bridge in four years. Its an infrastructure project long overdue.

Good job, Eboh Media. I'm one of those who commended you on the previous videos you posted. I do not live in Nigeria currently, but like you, I am neutral when it comes to political affiliations. I do not see anything that hints of insincerity when it comes to the Federal Government's commitment to the Second Niger Bridge. Folks who say otherwise have a certain political agenda, and would not like to see the people of the South-South and South-East celebrating the Federal Government. It is time we left the politics of division and retardation behind, and join hands to build a strong, prosperous and economically viable nation for all the people. Thank you for your objectivity. It is well appreciated. Peace!

Well,all those comments are still true though,Nigerian does not do anything from economic point,otherwise Ajaokuta and the refineries would be working, it's all about political score cards.The next thing would be who's name and picture is going to be on the bridge just to emphasis that point.l have never seen a picture of a president in offices abroad but in Nigeria,they hang the president picture in public offices like a super star..People that are meant to serve the citizens are now Lord and master. It's all self glorification not about the countries development.l guess we have to thank God,atleast they are constructing something finally for real.😂

so for 7 years, the only reasonable infrastructure that was done in the borders of SE and SS is a bridge. which is not even exclusive to the SE and is tolled. hahahahaha

[@ikengaspirit3063]

@@jaybee4577 well, I did say it was during Buhari's tenur that they finally finished Enugu but. APC has had power over several Northern states before the got the presidency and there were unfinished stuff there thru that period and are by this point mostly defected PDP. So I am still no Fan of APC tho, I will agree they have built better infrastructure than PDP.

Sometimes i get disappointed by some of you guys in the east! I dont know if its ignorance or just being mischievous. How can a ship sail on a river? Is the second niger bridge not being built over river niger? Or is a river same as an ocean? Na wa ooo!

[@ositamordi9799]

@@adetunjisamson262 See what this guy is talking about. I just pity some of you people from the West. Your deception cannot work with what I saw with MY OWN EYES. Yes, ships can sail through the Niger. It is not just a "river" ---it is a big river and there are many examples in the World. I gave the example of Duisburg in Germany. And instead of you to carry out a research and refute me, you decided to be "disappointed" and accuse others of what some of you are well known for in Nigeria. You should do the needful and stop stereotyping. Nigeria cannot attain it's full potentials when some of you SELFISHLY try to stifle development in other parts of Nigeria. And using your own language , I will say "Na wa oooo!!!" on your lack of knowledge. Your likes deserve pity

[@ositamordi9799]

@@adetunjisamson262 How will a river which measures about a MILE not take ships? Have you seen any ship that stretches more than a mile? You should take your ethnic nationalism which you brand as "rational" elsewhere. If we must stick to strict rules on ports, no location along the coast of Nigeria fits into that description because no where along the coast of Nigeria does a natural harbor exist. It needs a bit of engineering work here and there before it can be used. As long as the river is wide enough (over 1.6 km) and deep (via dredging) then there is no big deal. If we are so attached to "Ocean" then ports such as Port Harcourt, Onne, Calabar and even Calabar do not really fall under that category. Port Harcourt is like 40 miles from the high seas (at Bonny). So stop these games some of you play. Onitsha deserves an inland port like many locations all over the world with such inland ports. So stop this your misdirected accusation. This is typical with some of you. You want everybody to import via Lagos and dismiss the chances of other locations to develop because according to you "it is not along the Ocean". Very laughable and flimsy excuse. it is only in Nigeria we see such lame argument to support or dismiss anything. This is why the country remains such a basket case. It is not about "East" or "West" but it is about siting a project in a location that will enhance further growth and development and this will develop Nigeria further.

Ok! If Nigeria is expecting the south east to prostrate and be full of gratitude, they can count me out. This is a generation overdue project that was proposed by the Shagari administration. Of course, while other regions are getting high speed railway, the south east is expected to be content with a bridge 😏
