Oye was reacting to threats from members of the opposition
All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state, who allegedly said they would
pull down the bridges constructed by Governor Willie Obiano, because they were
poorly constructed.
He said those questioning the quality of the bridges lacked
the technical know-how, insisting that the bridges met all engineering
requirements.
“They are not coming to power today or tomorrow; APGA will
be here for another 100 years. By that time we would have produced more and
more bridges.
“When they said the bridges were collapsing, what they saw
was like a mirage. They didn’t know that when you build a bridge, you have to
create room for flexibility. They didn’t study physics; the bridges depict
architectural masterpieces,” Oye said.
