[James Omoro]More than 5,000 residents of Kodera North location in Kasipul constituency have stopped calling for the government to construct a bridge. For more than a decade, Nyiwir Bridge on River Awach has been a nightmare for the residents. The bridge made of a single log has caused the deaths of three residents and more than 10 cattle since 2012. The deaths, inability to access markets and schools have made them construct a permanent bridge on their own through a fundraiser. Owidi said the construction of the permanent bridge will begin soon.
