Does Edo have a coast? I doubt it. They have a river that runs inland but no coast.

They have access to sea they just dont have a coast.

The river gives access but Delta can toll it for IGR and make vessels in and out of Benin River pay access fee.

Delta has no such power. Interstate commerce is regulated by the federal government exclusively. Read the constitution.

Exclusive list items:

36. Maritime shipping and navigation, including -
(a) shipping and navigation on tidal waters;

(b) shipping and navigation on the River Niger and its affluents and on any such other inland waterway as may be designated by the National Assembly to be an international waterway or to be an inter-State waterway;

(c) lighthouses, lightships, beacons and other provisions for the safety of shipping and navigation;

(d) such ports as may be declared by the National Assembly to be Federal ports (including the constitution and powers of port authorities for Federal ports).

Water from such sources as may be declared by the National Assembly to be sources affecting more than one state

64. Water from such sources as may be declared by the National Assembly to be sources affecting more than one state

Both Akwa Ibom and Ondo claim to have the longest coastline. I didnt understand how this issue could come up until I learn about the coastline paradox from Real Life Lore. Link to his video below.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFjq8PX6F7I

The coastline paradox is the counterintuitive observation that the coastline of a landmass does not have a well-defined length. This results from the fractal-like properties of coastlines, i.e., the fact that a coastline typically has a fractal dimension (which in fact makes the notion of length inapplicable). The first recorded observation of this phenomenon was by Lewis Fry Richardson[1]and it was expanded upon by Benoit Mandelbrot.[2]

some Nigerians are grossly brainlocked, another land locked country is building the biggest Airport in Africa where they hope to deploy the biggest and largest airline in africa, Ethiopia is landlocked but not brain locked , some Nigerian states are brain locked and not land locked

I think she meant the combination of Lagos, Ogun, Ondo.
Re: Non Landlocked States In Nigeria by Nobody: 8:16pm On Jan 20, 2020
Interesting to know.

But if Ondo state has the longest coastline in West Africa how come it doesn't have great beaches as tourist attraction? lipsrsealed

Who knows maybe the local government(s) didnt put in work making it attractive. The most popular beach is in lagos if I had guess but it's the smallest.

Many nlers speak English but they dont understand it fully.

Asking them to explain inconsistencies in what they write generally brings chaos in their thinking. Meaning they can't.

Let's hope the governor can look into this. It should be a rich source of revenue for the state
Re: Non Landlocked States In Nigeria by kettykings: 8:49pm On Jan 20, 2020
The east is 10% landlocked because we have Azumini and Revie Niger and 100% not brain locked , all the east needs to do is to follow the Ethiopian solution and build the largest Airport in west africa and continue where Air peace stopped by building the largest Air fleet in Africa, develop the river ports of Azumini to link to the sea
