Keep claiming South-South!


Its boldly glaring on the map that the South-East is land-locked! River port you can have and thats for transportation and small cargo ships.

Stop claiming the South-South!


It will be easier for Arsenal to win the EPL than for Anambra or Abia to have a functioning river port!

Why is it your problem?

What is south south? We are talking about the Igbo race and u talking about the nonsense created by dumb politicians. Tomorrow if they wake up and call u south - north you still agree like mumu. . Wake up man

Meanwhile Oguta is in Imo state not your south south. Read the post again.

By your flawed logic, every country of the world have access to sea and therefore no country is landlocked - even Lesotho and Niger republic are not landlocked according to ibos

*it will be easier for Arsenal to win the EPL than for Anambra or Abia to have a functioning river port!*

Just what I intended to write.
South-South isn't South-East.

The only ways to the sea are from Igbo lands carefully cut into the south south .
The FG did a good job in trying to keep Igbo's away from the sea. Google map is clear.

Its only possible to have river ports in the south East. Dredging the Igbo lands in the south south isn't going to be an easy task neither but def not impossible afterall portharcourt was dredged too

The ibibios will need to be involved in such projects too even though oron doesn't even need dredging. Hopefully they're friendlies.

Tell me one one Igbo speaking town with sea shoreline that Igbos go to the beach. Millions of Igbos have their first beach encounter in Lagos

I just they laugh at this thread. The op they make me laugh so hard.

You can be 10 meters away from the sea and if that ten meters doesn't belong to you you're still landlocked. Seaports do not necessarily translate to not being landlocked unless they connect to the sea without passing through an inch of somebody's territory. Those ones you're talking about are INLAND SEAPORTS and cannot be defined as international maritime boundary. Inland seaports, with sufficient capital outlay, can be constructed almost anywhere (even in the desert terrains of the Sahara).
.
So, my friend, you can see that Igboland is a classic definition of landlocked state.

We yoruba Muslim demons does not like this kind of news .

Good Good and Good.

Lagos is no mans land

Hilarious post" So the Ocean-going ships bringing merchandise to Biafra will have to FLY OVER or SQUEEZE under the bridge linking River State with Akwa Ibom State to get to the proposed Obuaku seaport in Abia Biafra-Land abi ? The same is the case of accessing the Ocean from either Imo or Anambra States cos of the Bridges at Ahoada River State,Kaima Bayelsa State,Patani Delta State.The TRUTH is' Igbo/Biafra Land is simply LAND LOCKED!!

Ekinematics:
Op even Niger republic has access to the sea

how?

Lagos is no mans land

nobody owns lagos. A place that was conquered by Benin Kingdom. and later by British, who then developed it in conjuction with igbos and other nigerians

how?

River Niger passes through Niger republic and empties into the Atlantic via the Niger Delta.
So going by this Ibotic logic it means Niger Republic has access to the sea

Southeast and by extension, Igboland has access to the Sea, Rivers, Water Ways  to Atlantic Ocean but some ignorant Nigerians cannot learn the geography and history that is evident and factual on ground in southeast and Nigeria. They love to be ignorant despite facts in their land. What a people with Nigerians and Africans mentality of denial of facts as long as it massages their ego and wishful thinking.

Lets use a simple arithmetic to teach the ignorants in these forums that Igboland is not land locked. Fact one, IkwerreLand/Porharcourt and Porthhacourt seaport was dredged 40 to 50  Miles to sea from the Bonny River to Atlantic Ocean. Onne SeaPort in Ogoni land was dredged 50 to 60 Miles to Sea from Bonny River for Larger ships to Atlantic Ocean. Calabar Seaport is dredged 45 nautical miles to Atlantic Ocean. Akwa Ibom Ibaka deep seaport is about 30 nautical miles to Atlantic Ocean without dredging and the best seaport location in depth and width in Eastern Nigeria. Then open your dummy eyes and ears again.

PROPOSED 2 (TWO) SEA PORTS IN OBEAKU- NDOKI AND  AZUMIRI SEAPORTS  IN ABIA STATE.

Obuaku Ndoki Port in Abia State is only 25 nautical miles to the Atlantic Ocean from the confluence of Imo River and Azumiri (blue River) in Abia State, which is a large and deep body water of high flowing and rich rivers. Azumiri  Blue River in Abia State is also 25-30 nautical miles to Atlantic Ocean for a big Seaport and big ships. Many Igbo towns and villages  in Imo State, Abia State, Anambra State and Anioma are within  30 minutes to one hour drive to the Sea Atlantic Ocean. That is not land lock you dummies.


7 (SEVEN) SEA PORTS AND POTENTIAL SEAPOPORT UNDERWAY IN EASTERN PARTS OF NIGERIA.

(1)PORTHARCOURT SEAPORT - IN RIVERS STATE ALONG BONNY RIVER IS 45 NAUTICAL MILES TO ATLANTIC OCEAN
(2) ONNE SEAPORT - IN RIVERS STATE ALONG BONNY RIVER IS 50 NAUTICAL MILES TO  ATLANTIC  OCEAN
(3) CALABAR SEAPORT- IN CROSS RIVERS STATE IS 45 NAUTICAL MILES TO ATLANTIC OCEAN
(4) IBAKA SEAPORT-IN AKWA IBOM STATE IS  30 NAUTICAL MILES TO ATLANTIC OCEAN
(5)OBEAKU-NDOKI SEAPORT- IN ABIA STATE IS 25 NAUTICAL MILES TO OCEAN (PROPOSED UNDER PLANNING)
(6) AZUMIRI IN ABIA STATE CONFLUENCE BLUE RIVER IS 30 NAUTICAL MILES TO ATLANTIC OCEAN (PROPOSED AND PLANNING UNDERWAY)
(7) ONITSHA INLAND RIVER PORT IN ANAMBRA STATE UNDER CONSTRUCTION.


Ever since the Abia State Government announced their intention to bring a Sea Port to the state, there have been many questions raised. I reached out to a source at the Government House, Umuahia to obtain clarity. I was told that the proposed location for the seaport is in Obuaku, Ukwa West, LGA. Right in Obuaku, there is a confluence point where the Imo River and the Blue River meet. The Obuaku confluence passes through Ikot Abasi in Akwa Ibom State. In Rivers state for instance,  (along Bonny River) we have Portharcourt Seaport and  we have the Sea Port located in Onne, Eleme L.G.A. Onne,This is Nigeria’s busiest sea port and ranks as the largest sea port in west Africa. Did you know that while Rivers State (Porharcourt Sea Port) sits 40 nautical miles away from the Atlantic Ocean and Onne Port in River State along Bonny River sits 50 Nautical Miles away from the Atlantic Ocean. Obuaku  Blue River and Azumiri Rivers is only 25 nautical miles to the Atlantic Ocean? To some, this talk about a sea port in Abia state may sound unrealistic but, it is not far fetched. Even if it does not get realized by the T. A administration, this legacy project will come to fruition in no distant time.


Igboland is not landlocked according to United Nation treaty, International law OF THE Sea and African Union laws. Igboland has many Rivers, Canals, Waterways, Lake and bays in Imo State, Anambra state, Anioma, Asaba and Abia States which flows into the Atlantic Oceans and the Sea and many a distance of 30 minutes drive.
FACTS ON GROUND
Development of a Sea-Port at Obuaku-Ndoki:  many Nigerians, even including many enlightened sons and daughters of Nd’igbo, had, out of geographical ignorance, borne the impression that the South-East of Nigeria is land-locked. But being a visionary leader, the truth is now being made manifest that the Blue River/Imo River confluence at Obuaku-Ndoki is only twenty-five nautical miles to the Atlantic Ocean. We are thankful that your administration is working committedly to establishing a sea-port at the confluence town of Obuaku.

Point of correction, Onne is not in Ogoni land. Onne is a town or village in Eleme LGA. Eleme is not Ogoni. Even though it has not come on the radar of silly politicians in Nigeria, one of the potential seaports in Nigeria is Opu-obu (Opobo). It is a natural deep water seaport in making.
