 It is now a difficult moment for transporters, commuters and motorists shuttling  between the northern and southern parts of the country through Ilorin-Mokwa-Jebba road. This is because the two major bridges linking the two parts of the country collapsed in the last  two weeks as a result of torrential rainfall in the area. One of the bridges is in Tatabu/ Gidan Moin along Jebba- Mokwa road while the  other, Bokani bridge, is  along Tegina-Makera road, both in Mokwa Local Government Area of the state.

Some smaller vehicles were however lucky to escape from the spot after creating alternative routes...
