About the project

The Iseyiridua to Afaha Atai Road is a 1.4-kilometre road between Iseyiridua and Afaha Atai in Eket Local Government Area.

The Akwa Ibom State Government is funding the road, with N250 million set aside for it in the 2026 budget. Work is ongoing. Governor Umo Eno inspected the ongoing work on the Afaha Atai and Iseyiridua roads on 24 June 2026, during the visit when he commissioned 4.8 kilometres of Eket roads. The contractor and start date have not been published.

The road is expected to improve movement between the two communities and their link to the Afaha Atai to Iko Ikwa Road and the rest of Eket. It is part of the 38 kilometres of roads that the Governor said in June 2026 were under construction across Eket LGA, under the ARISE Agenda.

Impact Analysis

For families and communities

It is meant to give people in Iseyiridua and Afaha Atai a shorter and firmer route between the two places.

For work and income

Both this road and the Afaha Atai to Iko Ikwa road reach Afaha Atai, so the two can serve local traffic together.
