In a video obtained by DAILY POST, workers and other road users were seen crossing the distressed bridge that has been ripped off as result of decay and old age.
Residents, workers and other road users had in the past cried out for the construction of the bridge but their cries never attracted any attention.Despite the fact that Eha-Amufu plays host to a Federal institution, it has suffered age long neglect by successive governments, including the State and the Federal Government.
“As if these were not enough, the residents of the town had also come under series of gruesome attacks by Fulani herdsmen on several occasions. “However, the trend has since calmed a bit after the former Governor of the State, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi stepped up some security measures.”“This is necessary to avert a national calamity. The government should not wait for people to get drowned before something urgent is done here,” he stated.
