Does Ibo Territory Extend To Sea? GT Basden Speaks. by BabaRamota1980: 5:35am On Aug 25, 2020 |
GT Basden lived among Ibos in 1900s. He was quartered in Onitsha and travelled around Iboland. He wrote his findings and experience. He was very critical of maps and place names that had been created and published ahead of his arrival. He found many places on his map did not match the actual landmark on ground, where it showed a river should actually be a farm. He complained bitterly about this. At the end of his trip he redrawn the map and placed things in their proper place. To that effect he also released his own map. There was nowhere he said he visited the sea. He said Ibo in Bonny were slaves though they were numerous and outnumbered the indigenes, they lived under Head of Families of Bonny people. This is significant information. This will shed light on the question of Ikwerre. Beyond that there is also the question of territory. Did Ibo territory extend to sea or not? I'll let readers contemplate on the whole thing. 3 Likes

Please you guys should stop teaching these Almajiris about the geography of SE, let them ignorantly believe we are landlocked, how can you keep arguing with a stranger who knows nothing about your geography, on the water ways in your own territory? We just want that our landlocked Biafra like that... First things first. 4 Likes |

What's it with Igbo having sea access or not mbok, Nigeria has sea access but are we better than Switzerland or Austria or even Rwanda of yesterday that are landlocked? Instead of thinking about making Nigeria a better place or discussing on breaking up nigeria if it cannot be a better place you're discussing about sea access. Sea access or not they can reach a business agreement with us in the SS and heaven won't fall. Nawa o. |

Maybe you should find something better to do and stop wasting your energy on something that will never happen or can't happen. |
