Edo state is just one state and not a region. Edo can't become independent nation alone so why must all states link to the sea. We are talking about landlocked SE because of their demand for Biafra Republic. 6 Likes |

chopnaira: Bight of Benin belongs to the Benin Kingdom. Watch the BBC documentary on the Benin Kingdom when the Europeans came to West Africa. The Benin Kingdom was the Super Power in West Africa. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1GW0J2wyINQ 1 Like

AllTheWayUp: The riverine tribes of isoko, ijaw and Urhonbo are seething that the Igbo speaking tribes were added to their state so they could chop oil money they were not entitled to. Now, imagine if they had joined Edo to them? They might just have left it as Bendel state. 3 Likes |

I have never understood why on earth Bendel was balkanised. That State was a true bastion of progress in everything from sports to the economy. If Nigeria were to break up, a return to Bendel would rapidly see that new nation progress exponentially. 3 Likes |

Maybe you should also ask why Cross River State is in the south south but Abia and Imo are in the south east. Such a confused map. 1 Like |

eTroll:Akwa Ibom is in the west while cross River is on the north east of the shore. Cross River is one of Nigeria's coastal states.. Like someone already mentioned, posters of SE extract have been creating funny topics about access to the sea after news broke about cross River's deep sea port. and this topic is not an exception. Cross River being a coastal state is not even up for argument. Red line points to Akwa Ibom/ cross River border line. The pink points to Nigeria) Cameroun border line. 4 Likes
