Ace Nollywood actress, Kehinde Bankole, has expressed fear
over the short height of the railing on the Third Mainland Bridge, stating that
it is a ‘disaster waiting to happen.’
The screen diva noted that due to the shortness of the
railing on the bridge, one could easily trip and fall into the water especially
while trying to fix a broken-down vehicle.
She stated that the government ought to have increased the
height of the railing during the recent rehabilitation of the bridge by the
Federal Government.
Bankole took to her verified Instagram page to reveal her
fears via a video saying, “Am I the only one who finds the Third Mainland
Bridge’s railings very short? Am I the only one who is weird? Maybe it is not
short and I am the only one who is thinking that the railing is short? Each
time I am being driven or I drive myself across the Third Mainland Bridge I
always wonder that it feels that the railing on the bridge is quite short. It
looks as if the railing is so short that if someone should lean on it
especially while fixing a car you could trip and fall into the water by
mistake.
“I am calling on the
Ministry of works to do something about it. Something should be done about the
railing because we use the Third Mainland Bridge a lot. I know that repairs
were made on the bridge some time ago. Can the railing be made higher? That
railing looks like a hazard, it looks like a disaster waiting to happen. I feel
we should not sit down like ducks waiting for the disaster to happen before we
speak up. That Third Mainland Bridge’s railing is short.”
