The Suez Canal Shows That 4 Out Of 5 South East States Has Access To The Ocean by gidgiddy(op):
The Suez Canal is a very popular and busy shipping route. Ships in the Indian and South Atlantic Oceans would have had to travel round Africa for over a week to get to Europe and the Mediterranean Sea. The same Ships man make the same journey in less than a day just by accessing the Suez canal. The Suez canal is so narrow that a big ship called the "Evergreen" blocked it yesterday.

In the South East, 4 of the 5 states there, not only have water-ways that are wider than the Suez Canal, but are much closer to the Atlantic Ocean than the Suez Canel is from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean Sea.

The River Niger from Onitsha in Anambra, the Ebonyi River in Ebonyi, Oguta River in Imo state and Azumini blue River in Obuaku, Abia, all run to the Atlantic Ocean.

This Suez Canal is like a stream in my village
River Niger is more large than this
Yet ships pass through that hole

A lot of Nigerians believe that you must have huge coastline before you can have access to the Sea. Not many of them know that you only need a small canal for Big ship to pass

And most who think such way always call themselves intellectual because they were able to speak and write English language
Worst is none of them have travel beyond their mother’s kitchen hence they will argue on everything

With all what you're saying. A state like Benue state can also tell us that they are not Landlock. But the main problem is that states like Bayelsa, Delta and Edo state will never agree to the River Niger been dredge.

Op we know this already. Nigerians desperately want you to give up the idea of leaving so they have to tag you landlocked to scare you.

And it’s working for some igbos while the wise ones know their game.

Even an O'level student of geography would easily explain to you that the concept of the Suez canal has to do with the depth of the channel as opposed to its width.

Always think deep before you come online to type nonsense

Because the side effects will only affect those state and not those who want access to the sea

Comparing the Suez canal, which is located in Egypt and south east access to sea is funny. Forgetting you have to pass through South South State before reaching South East.

Where you know is very little. Do you know the place causing tribal war between Akwa ibom and Abia state?

Edo State has absolutely nothing to do with River Niger. Anambra State shares the same relationship of River Niger with Delta State.

In fact, many little known ports in Nigeria are located deep into the river. For example, the port of Koko in the River Benin, very far away from the ocean.. Second is Ibeto Cement's import terminal also located deep in the river.

Even Kogi with two mighty Rivers flowing into the Atlantic ocean can also claim access to the Sea.

Even a primary 3 pupil
Will tell you that dredging a river is more easy than widening it
Ottellectuals will always have excuse for their mediocrity

U will term it impossiblity for ship to pass
