A major disaster was averted yesterday in Imo state as a pedestrian bridge built by Governor Rochas Okorocha at Heroes’ Children’s Park collapsed while the governor was on the bridge.
According to 247, the incident happened when the governor stopped over on his way to the Nigerian Union of Journalists Governorship Debate to interact with some students of Development Comprehensive Secondary School, Owerri, who were around the park when he came.
Trouble however started when Okorocha beckoned on the students to climb the bridge so he could teach and inspire them on how to become leaders.
No sooner had the governor started the teachings, the bridge caved in with the iron bracing of the bridge cut under the weight of the governor and the students and the students started shouting “Jesus! Jesus!!” out of panic.
The governor’s aides, especially the members of the security operatives, started shouting to the students: “Jump out!, get down!, jump out!”
Common sense is indeed not common.

I wonder the reason Nigerians hates themselves and will allow a foreigner to build substandard bridge and roads in this country? In China Rochas is a dead man with the foolish contractor but here anything goes.

I have warned my brother Okorocha to stay away from that evil Party APC, but he never listen....everything they do there is fake, revenge and wickedness....now you have seen the result ....
