Mbo Towns And Villages

Mbo is a Local Government Area on the coast of Akwa Ibom State, at the mouth of the Cross River estuary. Its headquarters sits at Enwang town. The council was carved out of Oron Division in 1989.

The 2006 census counted 102,173 residents. Projections put the 2022 figure near 130,400. Mbo holds ten wards: Enwang I, Enwang II, Ebughu I, Ebughu II, Udesi, Efiat I, Efiat II, Ibaka, Uda I and Uda II.

Oro is the main language, spoken alongside Efik, Ebughu, Efai and Enwang-Uda. Fishing, marine transport and farming (plantain, cassava, vegetables) drive the local economy. Ibaka hosts an oil and gas hub on the coast.
