About the project

The Ikot Akata-Ikot Akpa Ekop-Ntan Ide Edem Udo Road is a 9.24-kilometre road that runs through Ikot Akata, Ikot Akpa Ekop and Ntan Ide Edem Udo. It lies in both Mkpat Enin and Onna Local Government Areas of Akwa Ibom State.

The project includes a spur road, a bridge on the route and a 1.0-kilometre discharge drain to carry storm water away from the road. It is one of the road projects in the area under the administration of Governor Pastor Umo Eno. Its current status is yet to be confirmed.

The road is meant to give communities on both sides of the Onna and Mkpat Enin boundary an all-season link to each other and to nearby markets. It should make it easier for farmers and traders to move their goods and for residents to reach schools and health centres.

It fits the Rural Development pillar of the ARISE Agenda, which aims to open up rural communities and link them to the wider State road network.

Impact Analysis

An assessment of the impact of these accomplishments on the people and communities.

For families and communities

The road is meant to join villages on the Onna and Mkpat Enin boundary. A good road and drain can make it easier for families to visit each other, reach schools and get to health care across the two areas.

For work and income

Better roads ease the movement of farm produce and goods and improve access to markets. This route can help farmers on both sides of the boundary reach buyers.
