A recent survey was conducted in Akoka County, Upper Nile State, to assess the local population. The survey took place from June 11 to 16, 2026, and covered all five Payams in the county. It used a two-stage probability sampling method to ensure the results are representative of the target population.

This involved selecting villages and then households using specific sampling techniques. Further details about the survey, including its findings, are available from the source. The survey collected data from children and households in the area, but specific results are not provided here.
