Landlock, yet you all want them to remain in this unserious Nigeria, just let them go so that hunger will finish them since you all forgot that necessity is the mother of invention

SE is landlocked according to Nigeria's political Geography.. I don't think that region is landlocked

haywire07:
North east or North west.

South east is a landlocked region that will remain dependent on every other regions around it, either for water or for oil or food and Electricity.

The North has always been able to sustain themselves before discovery of oil and their moderate lifestyle is an advantage. Food and trade will boom easy

South south and south west will flourish due to oil and foreign trade, and transportation (waterways).

North central will remain dependent on mineral resources and they will form a coalition with the NE and NW.

Ethiopia and Rwanda are landlocked African countries that are miles ahead of Nigeria , with economic growth rate that is times 5 of Nigeria.

Chad is a landlocked African country whose military decimated and finished boko haram that has routed Nigerian military for a decade despite very high military budget

I think that all 6 geopolitical zones can become a country. The idea of financial difficulties will depend how prudently the use their resources, human and natural.

I noticed how some people are rushing to say that the SE is landlocked without equally mentioning that the NW,NE and NC are all landlocked. For them, it is only the SE that is landlocked. But no worries, Niger Republic, Chad and Mali are all North of Nigeria and are all landlocked. They are all still surviving as independent country

But is the SE truly landlocked? No it isnt, the only people who think that the SE is landlocked are those who dont look at the map of Nigeria well.

What some people dont realise is that neither Imo state nor Abia state are landlocked. Oguta in Imo state and Obuaku in Abia both have access to the Sea.

If you look at the picture of Abia state below, you will see that a tributary runs from the tip of Abia, separating Rivers and Akwai Ibom states, and into the ocean. Dredge that tributary, build a Sea port and and any ship can sail to Abia state.

You are forgetting something...how do you dredge a river through the middle of the "south south" country into the ocean?.....except they allow that

How you people stay in your hut in the village andnpeddle lies ignorantly baffles sane mind.

Have you been to South East? When did you conduct the research all round south east to come to the conclusion that it is landlock?

Let me healnyour ignorance.

There's a place in Abia state called "Azumini" literally meaning back of sea, it leads directly to the blue sea, some people used it during the civil war.

At the appointed time, it will serve as a trade route to the region.

In terms of oil, the oil deposits in Imo stste keep increasing on daily basis, a lot of oil exploration has been done in Imo state and the results are impressing.
Not just In, Anambra and Abia also have their deposits of the oil.

Also do not forget that south east has the largest deposit of Gas in the entire country, little wonder NLNG is partnering with Imo State government on that project, and as you know, gas is the future even when the future is bleak for crude oil.

But south east is not going to be oil dependent, we are seeing industrial revolution happening in Anambra, we have also confirmed that Aba is strategically positioned and ready to be the Japan of Africa.

Onitsha main market, Nkwo Nnewi,. Ochanga Markets, Mgbuka , Ariara Market, Ekeoha Shopping center are some markets that are going to facilitate large volume trades in the region.


Enugu has great deposits of coal in commercial quantity which has been abandoned for years, it will be harnessed to it's full capacity.

Ebonyi has salt and rice, which can also be brought to standard and exported

So you can see, south east is the only region that is dully positioned to be its own country because it will enable them harness their potentials.

The NIGER DELTA, THE GDP OF THIS USELESS DIVIDIED NATION CALLED NIGERIA needs to break away and go it alone. Use the wealth of Niger Delta to develop the Niger Delta. Let the other states fend for themselves. Niger Delta can become the new DUBAI of Africa.

I was talking generally.

Read up on Fulani.They believe in violence to pass their message but if you repel them severally,they will flee.They are weak militarily but will try to use a few of your people amongst you ,against you because they have perfected this because they have been in power for a considerable period.They have consistently used religion and basically lack of education among the Hausas.

The River is an international waterway which nobody actually owns. You may own the land, but you cannot own the River

gidgiddy:

: that's not true......a country owns and controls about 22km from coastline into the ocean..after then, it becomes no-man's land..this said river you are talking about flows into or from the ocean through rivers state(south-south) and so it's within their territory and control..just like the Panama canal is within the control of Panama.

SW always making noise when they hear Biafra they will start panicking.

See how they litter the thread on how they will be the best country. Awon cowards.

Is ironically how SE they mocking of been landlocked is the one asking for their independent nation while cowards are worshiping the north as slaves to remain in one Nigeria.

Your reasoning does not make sense. Is it all countries in the world that are close to sea? That landlock logic is baseless. South east will be a great nation and even south west have the capabilities of being a greater nation too. So why can't the south west fight for regionalism?

Bros do not pay any mind to useless brains in Nigeria. Nigeria is not called basket of fools for nothing. The baseless thinkers such as the one you responded with the above post make Nigeria to continuously look bad. Who in his/her right mind would want to have any of these goons as compatriot.

mrvitalis:
Firstly this map is not the true map of the people...

What would the Christian's in southern kaduna be doing in a country with north west ...

What would the Christian's in the north east be doing in a country a North East country


The Christian majority tribes in the north should be added up to form north Central , .....

The yorubas in middle belt should be given a chance to join their brothers or stay

Same with the igbos of South south

Every region has the potential ....but it depends on the leadership they elect

You are not wise my friend.


Southern Borno have Christians, Southern Bauchi have Christians, Northern and Southern Adamwa have Christians. Yobe have Christians, Kebbi, zamfara, sokoto have Christians.

My question is how will you carve them into your delusional middle belt region? All these places I mention are very far from each other, and they are placed in the midst of Muslim predominant communities.

I keep on saying SW and Kogi Muslims have strong bond with Northern Muslims, and they are the majority in SW. They have mutual loyalty between them.

You can never create a region based on religion. In the middle belt 3 states are predominantly Christians while 3 states are predominantly Muslims.

I've toured the South East more than you ever will.

I know you typed all these with tears and pain but calm down. Ihotago?
I know SE doesn't accept obvious facts, especially when it doesn't favor them. So I understand your pains. It's pathetic

I don't know what map you are using, but let me agree with you about the presence of the river leading to hell.
So ask yourself, does the river not exit itself through another state before emptying itself into the Atlantic?
And why have they not built a major port there?

Oil in Imo? Tell us the estimated deposit there

And I don't think i said SE will not survive. At least they will eat enough ebonyi rice and their very salty water.
Rather, I'm only saying their chances of survival compared to other regions will come with lots of suffering.

South East is landlocked. And as long as SS refuse to participate in Biafra, it remains a mirage. Only the north can break away from the country without stress but they will be landlocked too and they don't like that. The SW has the brightest prospects if they are independent.

You are somehow correct. The fate of an independent South East is intrinsically linked to the South South for very strategic reasons that cannot be wished away. Without the cooperation of the territory that makes up the South South today, the SouthEast would really struggle to reach its full potential. The South South's later rejection of the Biafra project during the civil war contributed immensely to the stillbirth of the rebellion and loss of that war.

You still put the wrong leg in ignorance. Does being landlocked ever stopped a country from socio-politico-economic growth? Nigeria had miles of coastline yet could not do a better job on Boko Haram than Chad. The last time I check, Chad is landlocked.

So says a Igbo wannabe!

The OPs question with regards to the south-east and south-south is just delving into the realms of fantasy, because he’s taken it for granted that the so called south-south as presently delineated would leave as one country, and the Igbo in this zone would elect to remain there to form Niger-Delta Republic, or whatever, with the Ijaw, Uhrobo, Itsekiri, Edo, and the hundreds of other disparate ethnicities that presently make up the zone! I may just as well ask where next a mammy-water would be sighted riding a unicorn!

Also south-east leaving as presently delineated and being ‘land-locked’ is no more than an excerpt from the wet dream you had yesternight! What makes you think the south-east is presently ‘landlocked’ and doesn’t have access to the sea? What of the access from Obuaku, Oguta and Onitsha? Granted some work would need to be done to dredge and expand the waterways, but Panama and Suez canals have shown us where there’s a will...there’s a way, and that with determination and effort a independent country can achieve a lot! The issue of access to the Ocean being a problem is a moot point because, as i states earlier, there will be no Niger-Delta Republic that will include our allies/cousins the Efik/Ibibio/Annang, for access to the sea to become a sticking-point! The waterway we will need will be the one dividing a potential Akwa-Cross Republic from a Ijaw Republic, and so it will be a international waterway...or at the very worst, the ‘south-east’ republic will pay some charge to Akwa-Cross for its ships to use the channel with its (Akwa-Cross Republics) flag!

And i’ve not even touched on our oyel and gas deposits, not to mention our human resource which even our detractors will admit are quite formidable!

You lot salivating at the prospects of a homogeneous Igbo country suffering economically are just doing it out of hate, jealousy and anger that the ‘pesky’ Igbos have the temerity to try and scatter you darling ‘one Nigeria’! Your postulations are not based on any well thought out analysis, but are bourne out of sentiments and bile!

I have requested from Nigerians to have the silly country disintegrated for a trial of one year. There must be a Republic of Igbo land and others. If it did not work fine, Nigeria can be reconstituted again with different configuration.
