If you think it’s not then you need to take a class in geography as it is clear the governor is on a wild goose chase except he partners with adjoining states that have access to the sea

You will need to go through the territories of Cross River, Akwa Ibom or Rivers to access the sea

Would Niger Republic claim it’s not landlocked because it can access the sea through River Niger?

There are only 8 states in Nigeria with sea coastlines and they are -
- Lagos
- Ogun
- Ondo
- Delta
- Bayelsa
- Rivers
- Cross River
- Akwa Ibom

Below is the map of Abia. Please show me the coastline

Are you not seeing the water ways to the ocean

As long as there's a river to the ocean

It's not technically landlocked

This port really dey pain Una o nna eh

Access to river is different from access to Ocean. Now i get. The South East from map view has access to rivers, but not the ocean

Mumu, you can't have direct access to ocean and still be landlocked.
Envious sadwasted skull mining ritualists.

Spits!

Niger Republic also has a waterway to the ocean so what’s your point? Does it mean they can dredge through River Niger without Nigeria’s permission and access the Atlantic

Abia cannot access the sea without the permission of the coastal states

Certainly Niger Republic can make the same claim. Of course you lack comprehension

They're very dumb, unintelligent and envious.

You are right. SE is totally land locked and theres nothing like access to the Ocean from the maps view. Thise state wont grant permission for such large scale dredging under any condition

You don't know anything!
The Imo river in question is a boundary between Abia, Akwa Ibom and Rivers states. If you have functional brain, you will know it's a common use river and not under control of any of the states.

They're treating South East like a country already even when he is still part of Nigeria.
Do you know why Etopia cannot dam the Nile?
If you figure it out then you will figure out why coastal states cannot lay claim of the sea.

Foolish bigot why not go and stop the project to buttress ur point that igboland is actually landlocked? Enemies of the igbo nation will all definitely be disappointed at the end of the day their evil wishes and evil agenda will never come to pass.

Okay that's not your problem

So relax I know this Abia seaport is butthurting you people

No nigerian state is an independent country of it's own so what is ur point? The federal government controls all the maritime sector in nigeria.

See the kind of post u are obsessed with? How does Aba and SE being landlocked improve ur life?

SE have indirect access to the sea.

Geography and history are seriously lacking among the people of the yeast.

If they understood geography well enough plus history that comes along with the territory, they won't be using Microsoft Paint to overstep their boundaries.

This is their route to the sea. The Imo River.

Akwa ibom only needs to have a mad man like Wike

paramakina202:


SE have indirect access to the sea.

Every one has indirect access to the sea.

Even Niger Republic.


But that doesn't make Niger a coastal nation.

Even Cross River is no longer a coastal state as it does not open directly to the Atlantic Ocean.

SE is landlocked.

That canal that dries up every dry season.

RevDesm0ndJuju:

It's just a white elephant project. It's just too thin and shallow for anything meaningful to use this river. Dredging this canal would not make any difference.

This level of envy is satanic.

It is obvious SE have no coastal state no argument about that.

And they think people in the lower Niger will allow the mouth of this river to be dredged knowing fully well the potential hazard of sea encroachment up stream.

This is not the first time dredging of river estuaries has been proposed and they not knowing why it has never be done given the serious negative environmental impact that awaits when dredging the silt ridden river mouth as it meets the Atlantic.

Whenever fresh water meets the sea, silt build up is guarrantteed.

Dredging the silt build up leads to sea water encroaching deeper inland which in turn will erode inland river coastlines and destroy habitats.

This proposal to dredge the River Niger up to Onistha has been fiercely opposed by SS communities and states alike.


Pic below is of silt build up when fresh water meets the sea.

The best that can happen is having barges carry cargo from deeper ports inland. But this is not efficient when compared to rail transport.

@Yoruboid, why do you feel there is a need for such a provocative thread?

Did you go after Buhari when he expanded oil exploration to Borno?

Come on man, you can put your intellectual gifts to better use instead of fuelling bush fires you would ultimately have no control over.

paramakina202:

They know what they are doing.

They are trying to claim coastlines down south in future by erroneously stating the obvious flat out lie.

I knew it , this abia sea port will give some people PTSD and bipolar disorder combined. Why people fall mentally sick when big projects come to the south east is topic that should be taken seriously

Acknowledge that SE has indirect access to the ocean just like Abia state just kick started building of a Riverport at Owaza today.
We are too close to the ocean to be denied passage to the sea it is impossible.

Historically , you were denied direct access to the slave ports in Bonny, Brass and Calabar.


Nothing will change.

Are you from SS?
If you are not why carry the matter for head?
There is another approved access through Oguta in Imo state to the Ocean.You can't stop it because of primitive hatred cos it makes economic sense as SE is an oil and gas producing region.

why do you guys sound so pained about the seaport ??
Is there anything wrong having Port in Abia state

You guys are just clueless
