Ikot Abasi Towns And Villages

Ikot Abasi sits in the southwest corner of Akwa Ibom State, on the estuary of the Imo River. Oruk Anam borders it to the north, Mkpat Enin and Eastern Obolo to the east, and the Atlantic Ocean to the south. The Imo River separates it from Rivers State in the west.

The 2006 census counted 132,608 residents. Projections put the 2022 figure near 169,200. Ikot Abasi holds ten wards grouped into five clans: Ikpa Ibekwe, Edemaya, Ukpum Ete, Ukpum Okon and Ikpa Nung Asang.

The Ibibio people farm cassava, yam and oil palm and fish the river and coastal waters. ALSCON, Africa’s largest aluminium smelter, and the Federal University of Technology Ikot Abasi both sit in the LGA. Hon. Ime Williamson Essien is the council’s executive chairman.
