The language of Matamu/Ekpe reflects the rich linguistic diversity of the Cross River region, incorporating elements from several Cross River languages. This song from Manyu Division is a fascinating example, as it contains a number of phrases that are clearly identifiable as Balondo. It is yet another reminder of the deep historical and cultural connections that have long existed among the peoples of the Cross River Basin.

This historic site is not just a local landmark; it is a powerful symbol of African history, memory, and resilience. It deserves to be preserved with the dignity and care that reflect its global significance. Protecting Bimbia means honoring the past, educating future generations, and ensuring that its story continues to be told with authenticity and respect.
