“However, from January 2, 2023, only vehicles coming from the east to west will be allowed to use the Second Niger bridge.

“Members of the public are also informed that heavy-duty trucks and trailers will not be allowed to use the new bridge,” Esiet said.

He urged motorists to avoid speeding, overloading, the use of unsafe tyres, and driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs so as to arrive alive.
