This Hausa man took a deep cut of his gworo and said to me, "Biafra will be landlocked, over populated, they will loose so much wealth and the separation will most likely be a war".

I sipped my wine, because I knew he was on the cheapest fears and I said to him,"I have all the keys to those pad locks".

First look at these..
Two scenarios. A Biafra with the south south and another without the south south.
Without the South South... How has landlock stopped a nation from growing? In this era of Antonov An-225 Hercules planes that can lift over 450,000kg equivalent to almost 2 ships and who remembers a SEAPORT in this generation of INTERNET-PORT when 85% of world's transactions are done through high speed broadband Internet. Gambia, Togo, Benin, Mauritania, Guinea etc., all have unlimited assess to the sea. Ha ji ya mee gini? Are they in anyway doing better than Rwanda, Bostwana and little Djibouti. In fact Djibouti is servicing 25 African countries with its Antonov plane nicknamed SKY-PORT that covers its most distant point in Africa from Djibouti in 18hrs while it will take 3 days to move a 40ft container from Apapa to Aba. Rwanda without a StreamPort nor RiverPort, not to talk of seaport is Africa's best growing economy!
.
In Europe, the PIIGS (Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece and Spain) have a peninsulaic access to the sea, whenever the storm of recession comes, it first sweeps them into the same damn sea, they are Eurozone weakest nations while landlocked countries like Luxembourg, Austria and Germany are waxing strong. As in "ha kwu chim n'ala"

In Asia, Qatar, Abu Dhabi, Dubai are not only landlocked but desert locked and how has that affected them? Who sea epp?

If the SS is not Biafra, there are various international corridors and laws that can sort things out, not forgetting that a greater communication with that region must cross through the Southeast (Biafra).
But if the Yoruba republics are declared and the complete anticipated Biafra is pronounced with the SouthSouth, though, doesn't actually exist but created politically made to exist. Then the north is simply DEADLOCKED and then mallam, I will advice you to chew less of this gworo now, so you can be able to eat something when it is presented to you.

On the population, what laws says all Biafrans must live in Biafra land? What percentage even lives in the north? Less than 3%, Yes just a handful of Biafrans lives in the North.

When you go to some places in the southeast, the population looks like there is a festivity going on but you must admit that the Greater Tokyo Metropolitan has a population of 37 million people and Monaco has a density of 22,500 per sq. km. I don't see people walking on the heads of others in such places, rather I see a China, India, Japan, USA, Mexico that has harnessed and muscled the strengths of their population into development. Even Lagos explosively developed due to population increase, that people had to push back the sea. 1000 skyscrapers in Biafra land, in no joke will solve the housing problem of Biafra by 95%! Take this to the bank!
.
On Biafrans loosing their wealth, I need not go outside Nigeria for an answer. In 1970, Biafrans got £20 and in 1975, there were millionaires already in Biafra land, the likes of Chisco, Ekene Dili Chukwu, Emeka Offor and even in 1979, Alex Ekwueme single handedly sponsored NPN to presidency that he was rewarded with a VP seat. Now show me one man, east, south, north and west that is wealthy from all the inheritance of the abandoned property?

The North is still underdeveloped, impoverished and incomparably out of tone with the 21st century.

On separations meaning a war...
This defines the sum of the accumulation of the northern cowardice, as if Russia broke up through a war, what about Eritrea? Singapore and Malaysia? There are more peaceful resolutions to conflicts than the vampire attitudes of the Northern Nigeria but let it be clear to you mallam; eshi à muru dike na mba, ka à muru ibe ya!

The problem of the Northern Nigeria is that they are brain-locked, spiritually-locked, psycho-locked, greed-locked, future-locked, even landlocked and above all DEADLOCKED by their ancestors who have long lost the keys to UNLOCK their future and yet they want everyone to synchronize with their backwardness and then still think its about PDP vs APC political affairs.
