A bridge collapsed while being commissioned in South Africa and a video of the incident has gone viral.

In the video, the officials commissioning the project are seen standing on the bridge.

Immediately a female official cut the ribbon to declare the bridge open, the structure gave way and collapsed with the officials tumbling with it.

Onlookers quickly rush to the bridge to help save the officials.

Fortunately, no life was lost.

Somebody somewhere embezzled money meant to provide quality bridge for the people there. Forget their level of development, the level of corruption in some of these countries competes with that of Nigeria.

Engineer is a murderer. His incompetence can kill and should not be allowed to even build a house. He should be jailed ASAP

In for a treat. Corruption really makes a man shameless. Paid for a poorly constructed bridge yet summoned the guts to come for its commissioning. As God no be man.
