2022–23 Akwa United F.C. season

The 2022–23 season was Akwa United's 27th season in the Nigerian football league system and their 14th (non-consecutive) season in the top tier of Nigerian football.

During the season, Akwa United participated in the Nigeria Professional Football League and the Nigeria Federation Cup.

They began their Nigeria Professional Football League campaign with a shock home loss against Bendel Insurance. The Uyo club went into the final day of the regular season with a chance to secure a championship play-off place. They earned a 1-0 win at Gombe United, but it wasn't enough to seal qualification for the play-off as results elsewhere did not go their way.

They entered the Nigeria Federation Cup in the Round of 62, where they defeated Wikki Tourists through a goal from Liman Ahmadu. Their hopes of winning the Cup ended after they lost to Nigeria National League side EFCC in the Round of 32.
