I have no idea why they haven't attempted to get themselves annexed to a neighboring country with an actual port decades ago, except perhaps that the Ivory Coast, the most rational imperial candidate, is deeply unstable at the best of times, and wouldn't want a vast new Islamic interior to deal with if it were given to them.
