FSBoperator: Is it our fault that you're poor? Land is always expensive in high value areas. That's why lands in Lagos, Abuja, SE and SS are expensive while lands in SW and North are dirt cheap. That's also the reason most of you keep talking nonsense about Igbos not selling land to outsiders. Anybody who can afford it will easily buy lands in SE. But if you need dirt cheap lands then go to the North or SW outside Lagos region. 1 Like |

Akungitit: Ignorance shouldn't be celebrated. All you need is a big river that is connected to a sea. There are several of such Rivers in Igboland that are close to Atlantic ocean. Most ports that were built in Nigeria weren't built on the shore, they were built inland. Including the ones in Lagos, Rivers, and Delta etc. Go back to secondary school, kiddo. 1 Like |

paramakina202: First picture below is the aerial picture of Onne ports, Rivers State. The other two are from Lagos. Can you now see they're all inland and Atlantic ocean is no where to be found, until ships navigate several miles? If you can't call these ones river ports, then why call the ones in SE river ports since there is no difference? 1 Like 1 Share

LOVEALAIGBO: Sorry I had to give my 30 minutes to get this done. 1. I located Afikpo (as marked out with a layer of shade). 2. To the East of Afikpo is Cross River (demarcates Ebonyi from C/Rivers state. 3. The Cross River is about 600metres wide at the point marked across with yellow line. 4. Cross River have several narrow and silty sections through its 170km to the Nearest Open Sea at the south-eastern side of Oron. 5. At the Cross section across the Cross River (the widest point) marked with yellow line, the elevation at the River Bed is about 6m, and the Highest point at the River Bank is 11m. 6. Assuming the River is always filled to the highest point of Elev. of 11m, the Water depth would have been max. 3-5m. 7. If you have to dredge Cross River to depth of 8-15m to make it Navigable for smaller ships, what will be the environmental impact on the shoreline of the river? 8. Dredging means the water level goes down to fill the new base of the river. This implies more erosional impact from the tributaries and and runoffs from towns and villages. 9. The new erosion brings with it more Silt to fill the river again (it is a cycle). 10. Continuous dredging means continuous erosion. 11. The South East has the most erodible soil in Nigeria (Sandy/Silt mostly). 12. The longest section of Cross River is shared by Cross River state and Akwa Ibom State. Ebonyi and South East has only 20 kms of the river from Afikpo before it loses exclusive right to Cross River State and then Akwa Ibom downstream. In all, there are more considerations to be detailed, particularly EIA before we can talk of River Port. Don't mention SEA PORT again, that is senseless. A bigger River Niger did not have Sea port because it doesn't exist. 1 Like 3 Shares

mrvitalis: Landlocked people won't understand I said ocean creek Ocean creek That is clear English That means it contains sea water/ocean water. I.e. salt water and is an inward channel of the sea Rivers are of fresh water not salt water.

IPOBLAND is a landlocked DOT NATION, it is impossible to build a seaport in a landlocked NATION. The real reason the Biafrans were defeated in the civil war is because the Nigerian army cut off food and arms supply by shutting down seaports in Nigeria which surrounds IPOBLAND. The only reason Biafra can not and will never have it's own country today is because it has no route to the sea and that's one of the reasons they're so obsessed with including the South South in Biafra.

I dont know what some people are arguing about. Do you need to have a shoreline to have access to the sea? No you dont. London is no where near the sea but London handles large vessels through the River Thames that runs through London to the sea The Suez canal below is just a canal, not even big as a River. Yet the Suez canal handles the largest ships in the world So it is really funny when people still think that you must have coastline before you can have access to sea 3 Likes

Re: Why SE Must Build A Seaport Now by Odibembem: 6:39pm On Jun 30, 2023 |
proeast: Ndigbos do not have access to the sea so they cannot have a seaport. The best is to rely on the Eastern ports of Calabar, Ibak, Onne and Warri, at least they are closer to u. Stop wishing for what nature has not naturally given u, make use of the next best thing. No FG would waste any billions in $$ to dreg an lake or river port. South East govs and biz men should collaborate to build a rail line from Onne or Calabar thru Aba and Owerri all d way to Onitsha or Enugu, after all rail is now on d concurrent list 2 Likes 1 Share |

Odibembem: Pick up a map of Lagos and study it, you will see that its port was built on a lagoon that is inland, ships will have to make a detour before arriving Atlantic ocean, that's why it's long despite being on a lower latitude than the SE states I mentioned. Again, take a look at the map of Abia state, you will find Obuaku at its most southern point, which lies much lower than where Rivers ports were built. Rivers ports weren't built on the shore but inland. You're the one making a fool of yourself out of ignorance. |
Re: Why SE Must Build A Seaport Now by proeast(m): 8:02pm On Jun 30, 2023 |
TheGreatIYANU: There is a huge bar of land that almost blocked the entire lagoon from Atlantic ocean. Ships have to make a detour around it before getting into Atlantic ocean, that's why. Remember that Lagos ports were built inland of that large expanse of land blocking the lagoon from the ocean. Take a look at map of Lagos you will see what I'm telling you. |
Re: Why SE Must Build A Seaport Now by proeast(m): 8:05pm On Jun 30, 2023 |
AwkaFinest: Study the two maps below critically. You will see that Obuaku is at the southern tip of Abia state, at the boundary between Abia, Akwa Ibom and Rivers. The Imo river that flows from it is what forms the boundary between these states. This section is closer than both Onne and P.H port to Atlantic ocean.

proeast: The one at Onitsha is sea port or river port? Let us focus on geographical locations of the river/sea ports and discuss reality and facts and forget geopolitical interpretations, Onne is technically a river port. |

ysth:Yoruba man, tomorrow now you will be shouting on top of your voice that Igbos must leave Lagos where you can’t support SE to have the facilities that Lagos state have courtesy of Niger Delta oil money rather you claim to be from SE to discredit any good thing meant for SE. |
