Actually you're right. I saw a thread by one hausa guy like that claiming the north isn't landlocked as they have acess to numerous rivers that lead to the sea.

Couldn't help but lmao. I don't get how Google is free yet people won't use it to cure their ignorance.
BeLookingIDIOT:
If Igbos say SE isn't landlocked due to having rivers whose route will eventually lead to the ocean(as if they don't pass through other regions),then most of the Northern states aren't landlocked either.

Is this a threat to the good people of the SS?

And what language do you think they speak in Bonny?

Same way the Ekiti and Ijesha (ounje osha) slaves were bought by the oyos and shipped away to the new world grin grin.
The whitemen you are talking about, the Aros sold them the slaves and not the ijaws. Thousands of Ijaws were bought and shipped to the Caribbean. Slavery has happened to virtually every race and people of the world so it's a scar we all bear.
The Jews were enslaved by the Egyptians and the babylonians.
The Greeks, Armenians and the people of south Ossetia were all enslaved by the Turks in Asia minor.
The Chinese were enslaved by the mongols from Mongolia.
The list is endless.

The Bonny language is the mother tongue of only a section of the Bonny people; for the others it is only an adopted language, for a large part of the coastal peoples, especially at Bonny, consists of slaves who are purchased or seized by other tribes, sometimes from a great distance. Most of these people who were not born in Bonny are either slaves from Iboland, or, were, at least, brought here by the Ibos from the interior. This partly explains the general knowledge of Ibo in Bonny.

They call Iboland Igbinni. It lies at the sources of the Delta, and is full of great forests and mighty trees. It is very rich in natural products--maize, rice, yams, oil palms, dyewoods, cotton, horses and elephants. The numerous inhabitants are industrious, and make cotton cloth (egrabetta), [Italicised African words in this extract are not Igbo but Igbani] iron knives, daggers, spears and musical instruments. At the same time they are warlike, wild, and rapacious, and some of them are cannibals. Therefore they have to put up with being spoken of, by the Bonny people, as they would speak of sharks, lboman wawa too much, "Ibo people are very wicked" . . .

You have to break it down for them. What you wrote up there is too complex!

I wonder what Nigeria would do when an "hostile" state carries "weapons of mass destruction" into its territory? UN would have a lot on their plate, though.

Their political leaders understand these things, but I doubt whether the noise makers do. I wish them all the best, sha.

Until we can see ocean beaches

South east remains a land locked
Banking on international laws as a way to access ijaw or akwa Ibom sea is equivalent to banking on international law to put secession inside Nigeria’s constitution
River have beaches!!

Secret why the yorubas are fighting nnamdi kanu and igbos so hard on social media with propaganda is simple because nnamdi kanu have exposed their divide and rule tactice method, yorubas have occupied all the oil companies in the South South, go to Delta, Rivers, akwaibom, bayelsa, Calabar, I.T.C Yorubas are afraid of losing those positions once South South join Biafra, because of this they know they can't fight the igbos physical but to use social media to frustrate the Biafra ideology, many of them have changed their names to Igbo names on social media just to cause problems among South South/southeast, but we are wise. some of them are now claiming we the South South, some are now the mouthpiece of South South.

Attaché by force, leave the SS people for a minute. Can't the SE do without them, even the people of the SS had warned you people to stop merging the two but stubborn ones amongst you would still refuse, na by force to be your friend?
