mrvitalis:

So your point exactly? IMO River has a port on onne did Akwa ibom complain?

[b]Uncle, stop displaying ignorance.

1. Imo Rivers did not pass through Onne.

2. Assuming it does, since it is a River that formed a natural boundary btw Rivers and Akwa Ibom state, you can only build a massive infrastructure on it with the knowledge of your neighboring state because of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA).

3. Onne is South of PH city, after Onne, every landmass or water downstream fall within Rivers State up to the Bonny Island. In that case rivers state needs no permission from no other state apart from NIMASA or FG regulating bodies.

4. However, South East cannot decide what to do with Imo River without the approval of both Rivers and Akwa Ibom because you can't access the ocean without them.

5. On river Niger, You need Delta, Rivers and Bayelsa to consent.

6. On Cross river, you need both cross river state and Akwa Ibom to consent. That is why we were laughing at OP when he said seaport.

7. So, let us stop talking shallow as if we are in beer parlor.[/b]

And what's wrong if we pass ijaw waters? Is it a crime?

Then nothing is Wrong if Cross River State chose to dam the cross river at Itigidi to generate power for cross river state which automatically gives them the control on the quantity of water that flows downstream.

What this means is any River port at Afikpo will be at the mercy of the flow from the Atigidi Dam Upstream.

Lesson: No one can take unilateral decision in what affects more than him/her.

gidgiddy:
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

1. London City Airport is about 50 km from the estuarine mouth of River Thame as it empties into the North Atlantic.
2. The Tidal flow from the North Atlantic still flows almost 28 kms upstream into River Thame.
3. Mentioning River Thames means if it is not at the shore of North Atlantic (within the area influenced by Tidal flow at River Thame estuary), It is automatically not a seaport.
4. If you agree that the port is not within the Coastal estuary (i.e Mulberry Harbour or Canvey island area), dont call them seaport. I agree with you if you call it a River Port. Yes, it is Navigable to small Boats and Ships.

5. Suez Canal is purely an International business route depended upon by the whole of World.
6. Europe, Middle east, Far east, North African countries cut off weeks of navigation by using that 150km long canal.
7. It generates billions of dollars ROI because it is a solution to the whole world navigational problem.
8. It cannot be compared to the dredging of River Niger and Cross River with far less ROI.
10. However, I support South East to see the possibility of River Ports that can support Boats and small ships. But I beg you to stop this your yeye Seaport. It is not too late to call it a slip of finger.

LOVEALAIGBO:

There are two points there where ocean-going ships can access Obuaku and Afikpo. Can’t speak for the other places mentioned as possible sites for seaports in the south-east/Alaigbo.

The one of Afikpo will pass through Cross-River territory, and assuming they’re a country of their own, bilateral agreements favourable to both sides can be signed….or if it makes better economic sense, and our neighbours are ok with it, a independent Alaigbo can invest and co-own ports in either Calabar or Ibaka! I wouldn’t advise a independent Alaigbo to have anything to do with Port Harcourt, for a number of reasons!

The Obuaku option is a much better one as far as my knowledge goes….even better than the one currently planned for Oguta, and it’s a testament to how inactive and visionless the immediate past Abia gov’t was that the project didn’t get off the ground! In the event of Nigerias’ disintegration, the body of water leading to Obuaku would become a international waterway…with ships heading to Obuaku seaport passing our Opobo cousins on the left and the Republic of Akwa-Ibom/Akwa-Cross on the right.

Assuming, without conceding, that a independent Alaigbo/Biafra is landlocked, as many Igbo haters wish and get wet dreams about, we still have a number of good options at our disposal.

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.

If you know how to use Google Earth Pro very well,
1. kindly zoom to the area of concern to you.
2. Mark the points
3. Draw a route line connecting such to the sea.
4. Measure the approximate width of the river at the point you marked in Obuaku.

I want us to deal with facts and not fictions.

Note that you and your other folks should use the word "River Port" not Sea Port.

proeast:
Over the years, there has been arguments and politicization on the need to build viable seaports in the SE. However, it has become an urgent need now. With the removal of fuel subsidy, any region that is capable of landing fuel directly will become more viable than others. Fuel is cheapest in Lagos and most expensive in NE because of this factor. Also, Lagos needs to breath instead of the current suffocation there. Once there is a viable competition to Lagos, tension in that city will reduce. NC and NE will also benefit because it will make fuel and other imports cheaper in those regions.

Abia, Imo and Anambra States all have the potentials to build deep seaports that can berth large vessels comfortably! [/b]Before anyone decides to argue blindly, here are the facts on ground about ports in Nigeria and their positions:

[b]1. Ibaka, Akwa Ibom state; 30 miles to Atlantic.
2. Lagos State; 50 miles to Atlantic.
3. P.H, Rivers State; 50 miles to Atlantic.
4. Onne, Rivers State; 60 miles to Atlantic.

Now compare all these ports to those in SE:
1. Osemoto, Imo State; 18 miles to Atlantic.
2. Oseakwa, Anambra state; 18 miles to Atlantic.
3. Obuaku, Abia State; 25 miles to Atlantic.

The most intriguing part is that the designated ports in Osemoto/Oseakwa axis offer the deepest natural ports as well as the closest to Atlantic, thereby making them potentially the most viable and easiest to maintain in Nigeria!

Any state in the SE that first builds a viable port will automatically become the richest in the region, but also one of the richest states in Nigeria.

1. Google Earth Pro installed on your system.
2. Locate all the positions and put a point mark on your proposed seaport in the Landlocked SE.
3. And prove your points.
4. Make a graphical proof of your point.

In all, you just made a fool of yourself with this post.

He has seen how the religious card failed woefully.

He has learnt that going forward, any politician with no in-road into the islam dominated NW and NE may just be a waster of time and resources.

He will be 71 in 2031. He will be 79 when North spent their own 8 years.

Amaechi has attainable the crest of political power, albeit at a younger age.

The only higher position Amaechi could aspire to, it is the Presidency.

Even in the next 40 years only about 5 Nigerians can be President.

So not becoming President should never be considered a failure.

So Amaechi has lost nothing, he has achieved huge political success already.

Is there any successful politician without a cult followership?
Can you beat your chest and say Amaechi is the Kwakwanso of Rivers' State?
He knows what he lost - both his base and support from the centre.
Wike used support from the centre to get Amaechi off the driving seat in Rivers (Remember all the pressure from Jonathan using Wike).
Amaechi's left relevance was his connection to the centre under Buhari. He should have manage that connection after losing Presidential Primary to Tinubu.

You see 10mb and begin to post nonsense.

You actually can respond to public discuss without trying to insult.

Has APC that he superintends in River's State won elective positions to show Amaechi's political influence?

If yes, fine. If no why?

The main problem with Amaechi is his political negligence (negative emotions) he allowed to make him resent the winner of APC presidential primary. That vacuum he created by resentment of his gave Wike the wide room to take over APC and PDP in Rivers state.

So, where is the grassroot left for Amaechi?
Who couldn't step into Aso Rock when Wike is walking in and out seamlessly.

If you don't want to know, he needs a grassroot to negotiate influence at the national level. Wike has taken away chunk of the areas Amaechi had.
Wike will remain relevant while Amaechi is going into extinction.
