A viral video circulating on social media captures the moment a group of people, believed to be from an African country, gathered on the bridge for the inauguration. However, just as the ceremony was underway, the structure suddenly gave way, sending those standing on it plunging into the water below.
Panic erupted as bystanders rushed to rescue the victims, with some wading into the water to pull them to safety. The extent of injuries sustained in the collapse remains unclear, but the incident has sparked widespread reactions online, with many questioning the quality of the construction.
Authorities are yet to release an official statement regarding the cause of the collapse or whether an investigation will be launched. The video continues to gain traction, drawing criticism over infrastructure safety and accountability in public projects.
