President Muhammadu Buhari’s Personal Assistant on New Media, Bashir Ahmad, says the second Niger bridge is named after his principal, not former president Goodluck Jonathan.

In a series of tweets, the presidential aide shared a video of the 1.6km bridge on social media, adding: “Ladies and gentlemen, the Muhammadu Buhari Bridge (MBB), a 1.6KM Bridge that will be a major connection point between two economically vital regions in Nigeria.”

However, some Twitter users objected to the name, saying the bridge should be named Second Niger Bridge, and not Buhari.

@Greenaetion said, “It is not Muhammadu Buhari Bridge and it can never be. It wasn’t Buhari who initiated the project nor did he use his salary to construct the Bridge. That’s 2nd Niger Bridge or Southern Link Bridge.”

@Arizona_CF, objected, tweeted: “The name is 2nd Niger Bridge. Any other name doesn’t stand a chance.”

Responding to the Netizens, Ahmad said: “So, can we call it Goodluck Jonathan Bridge for sketching the bridge? The bridge is to be called ‘Muhammadu Buhari Bridge’, read the name again and let it sink in your head.”

The bridge which links Onitsha and Asaba, started during Jonathan’s administration in 2014.
