You are just trying very very hard to be right. SE states is Landlocked, its as simple as buying bread and butter.
Stop adding up other region to feel right.
Its just like a mor0n will pop out of no where to tell us that Poland is not landlocked because they were formally USSR. What a joke.
The five SE states (Anambra, Abia, Imo, Enugu, Ebonyi) are Landlocked, its as simple as that. Omo, some people are irredeemably stupid.
Other international treaties have opened up rivers, which are not traditionally international waterways.

The Danube River is an international waterway so that landlocked Austria, Hungary, Moldova, Serbia, Romania, and Slovakia can have secure access to the Black Sea.


Several international treaties have established freedom of navigation to semi enclosed seas

what u posted to back up what u were explaining has no correlation
Go and do research on UN The terms international waters or trans-boundary waters apply where any of the following types of bodies of water (or their drainage basins) transcend international boundaries: oceans, large marine ecosystems, enclosed or semi-enclosed regional seas and estuaries, rivers, lakes, groundwater systems (aquifers), and wetlands.

International waters (high seas) do not belong to any State's jurisdiction, known under the doctrine of 'Mare liberum'. States have the right to fishing, navigation, overflight, laying cables and pipelines, as well as scientific research.


Oceans, seas, and waters outside national jurisdiction are also referred to as the high seas or, in Latin, mare liberum (meaning free sea). The Convention on the High Seas, signed in 1958, which has 63 signatories, defined "high seas" to mean "all parts of the sea that are not included in the territorial sea or in the internal waters of a State" and where "no State may validly purport to subject any part of them to its sovereignty."[2] The Convention on the High Seas was used as a foundation for the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, signed in 1982, which recognized Exclusive Economic Zones extending 200 nautical miles from the baseline, where coastal States have sovereign rights to the water column and sea floor as well as the natural resources found there.
The high seas make up 50% of the surface area of the planet and cover over two thirds of the ocean.[4]

Ships sailing the high seas are generally under the jurisdiction of the flag state (if there is one);[5] however, when a ship is involved in certain criminal acts, such as piracy,[6] any nation can exercise jurisdiction under the doctrine of universal jurisdiction. International waters can be contrasted with internal waters, territorial waters and exclusive economic zones.

Other international treaties have opened up rivers, which are not traditionally international waterways.

The Danube River is an international waterway so that landlocked Austria, Hungary, Moldova, Serbia, Romania, and Slovakia can have secure access to the Black Sea.

the area where the river niger empties into the ocean belongs to the warri people it does not belong to the igbo people. if u want access to the sea it has to be with the consent of the people at the who own the area where the river enters the ocean. this is a simple thing why is it difficult for u to understand undecided
Ignoramus once there is coastline from East that connect to main ocean it means southeast isn't Landlock, if Nigeria cease to exist today that coastline will be declear international waterway, essentially limiting national rights and jurisdiction over the oceans to a narrow belt of sea surrounding a nation's coastline. The remainder of the seas was proclaimed to be free to all and belonging to none. Go and read the law of UN ocean and Sea, River Niger coastline doesn't stop in Southeast.

Landlock means is a particular state or country completely surrounded by land or there coastlines to the sea is blocked, which is not the case of Southeast, you guys should stop fooling yourselves.

can a vessel large enough like 4 storey building berth in those places you mentioned.. the east is considered a landlocked region because they have no access to the sea..a river can only take barges and not ships or vessels..
also if the river is dredged Right.. but will the adjoining States allow you access to pass through there territory even if you dredged you domain... the Suez canal was dredged to allow vessels to pass through Egypt from the Mediterranean sea to middle East and its the only access road from there to there coastal line except they wanna go through Africa.. nothing is impossible but you will have to be permitted to carry out that. .most ships will not wanna pass through a river course like the Niger because its only one way in and no other way out. so it's not secure...
Most of you are ignorant about East, south-east is not landlocked

Check below pictures, that's Onitsha port you can see tugboat and container barge used by JB, I took those pictures myself, I'm more informed how they brought those containers via warri port by barges down to Onitsha, go and read the meaning of Landlock to understand better.

Onitsha River Port “an untapped gold mine” – FG

NNEWI—THE Federal Government has described the Onitsha River Port as an untapped gold mine and a sub sector all efforts should be geared towards revitalizing to make it functional. It also said that the port is unique and exceptional from others in the country because of its three levels that goods can be brought in, namely: lower, middle and top levels which also makes it a great and wonderful port. This was disclosed by the Managing Director, National Inland Waterways Authority, NIWA, Sen Olorunimbe Mamora, during his maiden visit to Onitsha Area office of NIWA. …Sea port Mamora who was accompanied to Onitsha by some senior officials of NIWA from Lokoja, Kogi State, during the visit also described the transportation aspect of the NIWA operations as humongous in terms of gains accrueable from its operation. Decades of comatose He regretted that Onitsha River Port has been in existence since the administration of former President Shehu Shagari, yet it is not operational. “Onitsha River Port was refurbished in 2012 but since that time till now, nothing has happened in terms of full utilisation and that is not good news for us as a country, but the good news there is that the present administration of President Muhammadu Buhari is trying to rectify, amend and do things differently within the ambit of the change mantra of this administration. “I’m aware that many of the bulk of the cargoes that come into Lagos port leave Lagos for Onitsha,” he said. am sure less than 20 per cent of cargoes stay in Lagos the remaining come to Onitsha through the roads and it is aburden to the roads. “The Federal government is working assiduously to take off the burden off the roadside we can have them go through the waterways, and it is as slow ensuring the navigability of the waterways, the s as getting and the security of the waterways because those who want their goods shipped from Lagos to Onitsha port want them safe and not subjected to piracy and pilfering.

nextstep:
Er... from Wiki: (especially of a country) almost or entirely surrounded by land; having no coastline or seaport.

Landlocked countries may have a river that they can use (usually through another country).
Technically, you can't go from sea to SE without going through the Niger via SS.
Same thing if Kogi wanted to be a country or region... the landlocked definition would still apply even though it touches the two main rivers.



It is, unless you're imagining that Rivers and Akwa Ibom are part of SE, or that having a river means you're not landlocked. You typically need a coastline or seaport to be considered non-landlocked, according to the definition.
River Niger empty in Atlantic Ocean all is requires is dredging, if Nigeria is divided today River Niger can be designated as international coastal line, you can connect from Atlanta Ocean to Onitsha done to Niger state

Read the meaning of Landlock

A landlocked state or landlocked country is a sovereign state entirely enclosed by land, or whose only coastlines lie on closed seas.

Isn't life wonderful? A Fulani man is building a bridge for igbo man to continue his economic wandering to the western afonja territory mostly Tinubu's prosperious progressive state (which they love to envy)..

The sweetest part about this project is that it is going to be a tolled PPP bridge, and we shall all know the real economic almajiri between the West and the East, we shall clearly see who pays more toll between Igbo and Yorubas, we.shall see clearly who would cry in pains whenever there is price hike in the toll tickect price..


Well, i hope they speed up the process as blocked part of Niger River is causing flood and over flow into the main land



...
Dumbo you have three toll gates in Lagos, if you have common sense you will know there is already existing bridge only those that want to boycott Onitsha will use the new bridge when completed, second niger bridge will be used by all tribes first month after opening the bridge is not just Igbo dodomayana.

The Anambra State ministry of Transport in collaboration with the Urban Drivers Welfare Association ( UDAAS) are currently on a road show in the Awka capital city displaying the new colours for buses and other vehicles plying the Anambra roads.
The road show took off from the popular Arroma, Immigration junction to Amaenyi through Eke Awka to Amawbia 'express' and terminated at the Ministry of Transport, Jerome Udorji Secretariat, Awka.

Drivers and riders in the state are advised to paint their vehicles or Keke tricycles with the new Anambra colour or risk their vehicles being impounded by the officials of the taskforce.
