The Iwuochang community in the Ibeno Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State is on the verge of being washed away by ocean tide following the abandonment of the embankment project in the area by the

Niger Delta Development Commission.

He said efforts to draw the attention of both the contractors and the NDDC to the situation had fallen on deaf ears. “It is always very threatening when the high tide comes; there is nothing to hold it. All the houses around here were occupied by the owners, but they have all been sacked because the tide is usually fast, high and unexpected.”
