Anyikang community in Bekwarra Local Government Area stood still earlier today as the Speaker of the Cross River State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. (Chief) Elvert Ayambem, led a high-powered delegation of government officials and lawmakers to pay their last respects to the late Elder Mathias Odama Egbung (KSJI), father of Hon. Egbung Odama, the Acting Chairman of Bekwarra Local Government Council.

The solemn ceremony drew notable dignitaries including the Governor of Cross River State, Sen. Prince Bassey Edet Otu, who was ably represented by his Deputy, Dr. Peter Odey. Also in attendance were the Chief of Staff to the Governor, Hon. Emmanuel Ironbar, alongside several commissioners, local government chairmen, and political leaders from across the state.
