History

Abak/Midim is bounded in the north by Ibesit/Nung Ikot Clan of Oruk Anam, in the South by Edemaya Clan of Ikot Abasi, in the east by Ikpa Nung Asang (Essene) Clan of Ikot Abasi, and in the west by Imoh River, also called Imo River which separates Akwa Ibom State from the Ogoni Nation of Rivers State. In terms of population, the area has about one quarter of Oruk Anam's 172,000 people. The area is rich in arable farmland, which makes farming as the occupation of about half of the populace. Others are involved in petty trading, artisanship, and civil service. The area is also rich in crude oil as evident in the Oil Wells located in Ikot Inuen, Ikot Otu, Eka Ediene, Ikot Otok and Ute Etok. As earlier noted, the Clan is the gateway between Rivers State capital, Port Harcourt, and Akwa Ibom State, through the Nigeria's East-West road. In Academics, the area has public Secondary Schools.
