IkpuMmadu: To You and Bede, what would you do if they refuse to sell you even plot of land? What if they just refuse? You are thinking that people will jutsell their ancestral lands just to give you sea access? You guys are not being realistic and thats what really annoys me the most. |

horsepower101:thats not true. Somalia has closed many times the river that south sudan uses. The niger river in nigeria is 100% owned by nigeria. The one in ghana is 100% owned by ghana. If oil is discovered in lokoja river niger today, it will be owned 100% by nigeria |

pazienza: So Onne is a seaport while PH wharf is a River port?.... you see your life? Both of them lie on the Bonny River and the same fate befall them both.. If Elemes arent landlocked because of Onne port, Ikwerres too arent. Simple as that. But what do the Igbos have except pipe dreams? |

HopeAtHand:comparing the igbos with ikwerre is like comparing Africa with little madagascar. The only reason ikwerre is mentioned in igbo discussions is because u lots answer igbo names and many igbo errornously thought u guys as brothers. Have u ever heard igbos mention ejeagham in a discussion? Are ikwerres larger or richer than them? Stop feeling funky and go to ur ikwerre group pages. Ur only agenda as an ethnic group is igbo hate. Isnt that funny? 4 Likes 1 Share

IkpuMmadu: If you really know Rivers state and her geographical map, you'd have know that after Port Harcourt, what you have down south is water and swamp. Ikwerres own the usable land in Rivers state, the rest beneath us is just water and swamp. Ask yourself why didnt the British build a port down in Ijawlands. Why do they have to site it in PH. Simple answer, the land down to the sea is useless. Period. |

HopeAtHand: Obviously a mistake. Onne is a River port too. Ndiigbo can get our own River port at Obuaku Ndoki too. So no biggie, all that is lacking now is the political will to do so, which we would have in Biafra. We would still have the Ijaw bottle neck to deal with. Ikwerreland simply has nothing to offer Igboland that we already don't have, only misinformed Igbos cling unto Ikwerre. Ikwerreland is simply not strategic to Igbo nation interests. 9 Likes 1 Share |

HopeAtHand: This is pure consolation. Anyway that is between you guys and the Ijaws to fight it out. They are getting ready to deal with you. Igbos should stay away completely from that drama as it unfolds. 5 Likes 1 Share |
