Former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan commissioned 2nd Niger Bridge Map and pillars

In attendance: Former governor of Anambra state, He Peter Obi.

Extra: 10bn was spent at the stage of commissioning of map and pillars

Jonathan was a far far far far far far better leader with results to show

some persons here want to rewrite history by making AI generated assertions that are inconsistent. GEJ did alot anyway agenda go agend

SarkinYarki:
At least the bridge was 60 percent complete before he left and also you can compare Tinubu with Jonathan , Jonathan was a far far far far far far better leader with results

ohhulh why una like to lie ?

I am not sure I understand what Nigerians call commissioning because I don't see native English media houses use the verb. What GEJ did was to formally kick off the construction of the bridge.

Conversely, APC started throwing funfair for uncompleted projects, starting with the Dangote refinery. The day we eventually kick those con artists out of power, I hope their successors don't copy that gimmick.

SarkinYarki:

Na 97% e complete before gej left office.

To think I used to believe this guy talk from position of knowledge.

The same bridge they claimed buhari wanted to use to deceive igbos as they never thought any istration will ever agree to build because of cost. Today, gej completed it to 60%. Nawao. People dey oh.

I can see Peter Obi by the side, why is that man everywhere? Abi na my eyes?

Yes it's Peter Obi. That's to tell you that unlike other political thieves and armed robbers, he (Peter Obi) is very committed to the development of Nigeria.

This wasn't commissioning. This was a groundbreaking event. The groundbreaking of the 2nd d Niger bridge. The desperation to justify Tinubu's wrongs will make you loose your 35k job.

The second niger bridge is now on satellites pictures

Far better than this terrible Tinubu.

6 years of Jonathan was faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar better than all Buhari, Tinbu APC combined. See this peanutt crew, APC bots.
