Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Federal Government of Nigeria has effected work on the vandalized portions of the Second Niger Bridge.<\/p>\n

The bridge had, two months ago, been discovered to have been vandalized, with criminals making away with some metals covering sensitive parts of the bridge.<\/p>\n

This led to an order for regular patrol of the bridge by security operatives.<\/p>\n

The Anambra State Police Commissioner, CP Aderemi Adeoye, who led a team of policemen to patrol the bridge on Thursday, stated that the vandalized portions had been fixed by the Federal Ministry of Works.<\/p>\n

Adeoye said regular patrol on the bridge will commence henceforth to ensure security for both the facility and users of the bridge.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cWe have patrolled the entire length of the bridge repeatedly to identify the vulnerable points.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have found out that the contractors, Julius Berger, supervised by the Federal Ministry of Works, have carried out maintenance works on the vandalized portions of the bridge. We owe a responsibility to the people to ensure that this infrastructure serves the people.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will ensure that the bridge is patrolled. As you can see, the bridge is underutilized, and that can defeat the aim of constructing it.\u201d<\/p>\n
