Initially, the Ministry of Lands and Town Planning focused on mediation efforts in the Nsit Ibom Local Government Area to resolve conflicts between the Mbak people, several host communities, and private developers such as Citadel Value Homes. Following these mediation efforts, the state reported spending over N4 billion on land acquisition compensation to resolve long-standing issues for major projects, including Ibom Medical City and the Ibom Broadcasting Corporation complex. To modernize land administration, the government introduced a digitized platform for title verification and established a Land Conflict Resolution Desk, which has facilitated the out-of-court settlement of more than 100 cases. Further development initiatives include urban planning reviews in several cities, the earmarking of 150 hectares for over 1,000 housing units, and the implementation of solar-powered water schemes across all 369 electoral wards. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-08: Akwa Ibom invests N4bn in land compensation and urban development Akwa Ibom State has spent N4 billion on land compensation for major projects and is developing 1,048 housing units alongside new digital land administration and solar-powered water schemes. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/akwa-ibom-invests-n4bn-in-land-compensation-and-urban-development ### 2026-09-16: Akwa Ibom government mediates land disputes in Nsit Ibom The Akwa Ibom State Government is mediating land disputes in Nsit Ibom involving local communities, Ibom Mortgage Bank, and Citadel Value Homes to ensure peace and sustainable development. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/akwa-ibom-government-mediates-land-disputes-in-nsit-ibom --- Cite as: Akwa Ibom land administration and development.
