Udung Uko Towns And Villages

Udung Uko is a Local Government Area in the Oron region of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria, on the east bank of the Cross River estuary. The area was carved out of Oron in December 1996. Its capital is Eyofin.

The 2006 census counted 53,060 residents. Projections put the 2022 figure near 67,700. Udung Uko covers about 68.76 square kilometres and holds ten wards across two clans, Afaha Okpo and Afaha Ubodung.

Oro-speaking Efik people farm, fish and carve canoes along the Cross River floodplain. Crude oil and salt mining also employ residents. A beach market at Esuk Usung draws fishermen from neighbouring LGAs.
